Details:

What: Waterfallin
When: Sat. Mar 27, 2010
Time: 9:30am
Where: I figure any interested parties we can meet up at Tim Hortons in Hamilton (just off the 403) - 648 King St W
Bring: Camera, Tripod, ND Filter


Hello All, Having had to miss going to the last few trips out to the waterfalls I decided to just have another, one that I could actually attend!

I am not sure which waterfalls I want to visit (although i'm sure there will be some repeats to what others have already gone too), but plan on going to the Hamilton area for some falls. Suggestions are welcomed!

IF anyone is interested in joining me I can fit 3 extra people in my car comfortably (4 if people want to squeeze in the back) I will be starting off in the 404/401 area so can pick up anyone from there or on my way to Hamilton (that is not too far off the highway)


Jordan

Hi Tyler, I was thinking of Beamer Falls (was there two summers ago - late in the summer not a lot of flow, and have been wanting to go back). I was also thinking of Chedoke Falls, Albion Falls and Websters. But i'm open to suggestions for any changes or additions.

And no problem I can come pick you up from Yorkdale. Let me know what time you can be around there by.

As of last weekend, the stairs down to Webster's Falls were closed and there was an attendant present to take parking fees and scold anyone who tried to go down the stairs anyways...just a heads up...

Water doesn't really make me nervous but I clicked it anyway. I am not 100% sure if I can make it as of right now, but I will be trying.

Ok my car is now full

giving rides to Tyler, Leo and Alice (meeting at Yorkdale) Time still to be worked out.

Everyone else we'll meet at the Tims in Hamilton just off the 403 (I will get back to everyone with a more firm time shortly somewhere between 9 and 10)

I figure we'll start off at Beamer Falls (the furtherest away) and make our way back up from there. Prob Albion Hills next, then Chedoke Followed by Websters and I'm sure we can add a few others if people want (there are quite a few others around the same area)

I'm trying to free up a Saturday for some waterfall shots. I want to try out my new Fader filter.

Thanks for everyone who came out today for some waterfallin photos!!

And a special thanks to Tyler who took us to see some hidden gems and guided us around today (otherwise I am sure I would have gotten us lost a few times!)

I hope to have up a few photos in the next day or two.


Cheers,

Jordan
