Join us for a hiking adventure to
PINE POINT RAPIDS &
STURGEON FALLS

Join Out There on Sunday, August 24th for a hike through the beautiful Whiteshell Provincial Park as we go on the Pine Point Rapids trail with an additional trip along the lesser travelled River Bridge Trail.

MEETING INFO: We will meet at the Tim Horton's on Dominion Centre (19 Marion Rd.) starting @ 9am, where we will arrange rides, and hopefully get on the road by 9:30am.

BUS: If you are busing to the Tim Horton's, the best option is the FX2, which runs  North/South on Main/St.Mary's.

COST: A loonie donation to Out There will be collected. A $20 payment/passenger is asked for those catching a ride over.

WHAT TO BRING:  Sunscreen, hat, several litres of water, a bagged lunch, a snack or two. As much food as you feel you'll need for a 12km hike.

A swim suit and towel can be brought as there is an option for a swim.

TIMELINE: It is just under a 2-hour drive to the Pine Point trail head. Ideally we'll be on the trail before noon. With a break for lunch, we should complete the first trail in roughly 3 hours.

It is a short drive over to River Bridge Trail at Lake Nutimik. This is an easier trail that should take less than 2 hours.

At completion of this trail, there will be the option of a swim in Lake Nutimik.

Depending on how many opt to swim, and for how long, we should depart around 7pm, and get back into the city before sundown.

LENGTH/DIFFICULTY:  Neither trail is has much elevation, and both are rated as easy/ moderate. The total distance is around 12km. The primary challenge is stepping over rocks and tree roots.

REGISTRATION: Those interested, please contact Don:
