John
Mountain ventured out north of town for a trail and road run from Bush
Creek to Timberlands
Road a
couple of Sundays ago on May 13th. I left from my place in the Rocky
Creek neighbourhood and cut up to the TimberWest
Logging Mainline
and then over through the Fish Hatchery to  Timberlands
Road before heading south near the airport. From the airport, I headed
south on a narrow dirt road to the Cedar Road Junction and managed to
stay completely off the main highway on secondary roads. At the Ivy
Green Mohawk Station I ducked under the highway on a trail that leads
to back to the TimberWest Mainline and home. This run is a 20k
loop which
can be completed easily within two hours at a 9 minute per mile pace. Click
on the running route image to review the run details on Google
Maps.
