In April 2005, this blog came into existence with a post on the Luskville Falls trail. I am happy to say that I made it there again a year and a day after. Did I see any difference? Firstly, unlike last year, there was absolutely no trace of snow left anywhere. The falls looked a little more of a torrent and the day was just beautiful, more beautiful than last year I think. I forgot to bring my camera this time so no pictures, unfortunately. The warmest winter ever recorded in Canada might have something to do with it.
So where are the falls exactly? They are on the west side of the Eardley escarpment overlooking the Ottawa River and can be accessed via the 148. Coming from Ottawa/Aylmer, turn right at the gravel/mud Chemin de L'Hotel de Ville shortly after where the 148 becomes dual carraigeway and park along the road, then walk towards the falls past the ranch (where you can rent horses to ride, by the way). There should be quite a number of cars there at this time of the year. Google maps "Luskville, Quebec" and you will find it. If you have reached Luskville proper, you've passed Chemin de L'Hotel de Ville.
