Meet at 10 AM at the Tim Hortons in Lawrence Square Plaza, just west of Lawrence West Subway Station (Spadina Line), on the north side of Lawrence Ave.

We will walk about 12 Km from Lawrence Square Plaza to the Yonge-Bloor Station. We will look for evidence of some of Toronto's lost rivers, and possibly a few other interesting things. The route will be entirely on city streets and sidewalks, so shoes or boots suitable for the weather would be appropriate.

Note that there will be no subway service on Line 1 between Sheppard-Yonge and St Clair stations on Saturday and Sunday, as this may affect your travel plans. Please check https://www.ttc.ca/Service_Advisories/Subway_closures/index.jsp in case there are any further changes.

Non-members are welcome. They will be asked to sign the waiver form but will not be charged the non-member fee.
