Nisbet Summit Hike/Duck Lake Fall Supper

October 6 @ 9:45 AM - 5:00 PM CST

Specific Information

Meet:  9:45 a.m. across from the Lawson Civic Centre, in the Lawson Height’s Mall parking lot, by the park

Leader:  Hardy Menke   306-477-0593

  • Hiking about 12 km, through new-growth forest, with some hills, and vistas
  • Followed by the Duck Lake Fall Supper

We will be hiking where ski trails were created but then the largest fire, in recent history, in the Nisbet forest occurred:  the “North Cabin Fire” of 1989. The fire started in the MacDowall Block, and jumped the North Saskatchewan River. One person lost his life, 17,000 hectares of forest burned, and one house was destroyed. Now, we can witness the amazing re-growth of nature!
