Nature carves beautiful structures. Canada hill is one of the most popular hiking spots in the city with so many trails. On this day, my wife and I decided to go for the steeper trail. It is very thrilling with muddy soft terrains to walk on, small ledges to walk on.
It is a long way down here. A hike of approximately 20 minutes.
#Dense forest
This trail doesn't have a lot of hikers as it is slightly more advanced. Denser and darker. no shortcuts to get out. There are trails here that have shortcuts.
A couple of months ago, that's what happened to me and my wife. We were at one of these trails and it got late and only two of us here. So, I had to use my torch light. It trains out mind to not feel fear and at think rationally.
A really tough part of the whole trail
I did not manage to take a clear picture of the trail. This is the other side of the trail. The trail is on the left of the picture above. Basically, the walk path to this side is tilted to a 45 degree angle and being narrow, you have to trust the rope. The side is a 2 metre slide down.
After 40 minutes, we were out. Near the road. The view is spectacular. Our shoes were full of mud. Part of the game. Never use those Nike or Adidas when you come to hike here. One of my friends, some years ago, we were on a day trip to this trail that was super dangerous, he was wearing a pair of Nike sneakers to hike. He was constantly complaining how hard it was and he tumbled down and luckily some bushes saved him, but one side of his sneakers, the soles tore off.

My wife and I and my double chin
Usually, I cut my hair pretty short and spike it, but I have not gotten a haircut for a while.

The scenic view
The air here is fresh. With very little pollution high up here.
The view of the clouds
Clouds are beautiful during sunsets. This time, it looks like cotton candy in the sky.
