When you’re hiking and suddenly — cute puppers!

12/06/2025

So your friend says "Yea, let's go for a hike". And as any hikers knows, that could mean soooo many different things.

So what do you do?? 🤔🤔

As a LOT of questions!! 🥸🤓

How far do you want to drive to get there?
How far would you like to hike?
What kinds of things would you like to see??

After a little back and forth....here's the result...

A 5 1/2 KM hike through Short Hills Provincial Park along the Bruce Trail.

Lots of colour 🍂🍁... 2 waterfalls ⛲️ and one happy friend who's asking about hike #2

What do you say - 10k next outing? 😁

🌲🧩 For Everyone Who Loves Trails… and a Good Challenge! 🧩🌲

If you’re the kind of person who stops mid-hike just to admire the view — or who loves the satisfying click of that final puzzle piece — you’re going to love this.

I’ve started creating custom jigsaw puzzles featuring real scenes from the trails I explore in Ontario, Scotland, and beyond.
From quiet forest paths to dramatic coastal cliffs, each puzzle brings the outdoors right to your table… one piece at a time.

Perfect for cozy nights, gifts for hikers and travelers, or anyone who wants a piece of the trail at home.
New designs are added regularly — and yes, some fan-favorite trails are coming soon!
