Winterlit festival @ Mountsberg

After my first winter camping in Canada (here), I felt more comfortable getting out in Winter. My driving skills are not ready for primetime winter yet, so, I continue to rely on Parkbus for all my car-less adventures. And, they continue to surprise me with their reliability and consistency, despite the uncertainty in demand.

Winterlit is a festival organized by Halton Conservation (here) - two of their easiest trails are illuminated with local art and beautiful lights on Winter evenings. If you are wondering about the cold, they have campfires to warm your sprits and your body. The walk is mesmerizing - the combination of snow, cold temperatures, campfires and twinkling trails makes the experience memorable. When we arrived at the site, we had a couple of hours of daylight, so, as a group, we went on a couple of trails in the village. We were back in the village by sundown. Then began a magical experience...
