Hamilton Dundas, Ontario - Exercise Caution

[+Algonquin Bound]

After seeing a piece about this on the CHTV news, I did post a warning on one of the area caches, but perhaps this is a more appropriate spot. Please pass the word around to anyone in the area. Hamilton Conservation Authority has said, "Signs warning hikers to keep children and animals away from the water’s edge were posted Saturday on HCA lands along the creek in hopes of alerting residents about the contamination who may not have read or heard media reports of the fire.". You can read about it at Contamination affects years of stewardship work along Spencer Creek. There is a further, more direct warning, at HCA advises keeping children and animals away from section of Spencer Creek

 

Might be a good area to avoid for a while.

Thanks for the heads up 'Algonquin Bound'. I was heading to Hamilton next week and was planning some caching. CHTV isn't readily available up here. Think I may just stay in the Algonquin Highlands for a further spell.
