Dunk River Gold
Today, October 22, 2024, my wife and I headed east out of Summerside towards the Dunk River area. Like the Trout River are which we visited a couple of days earlier, Dunk River is a spectacular natural reserve which is quickly accessible from Summerside. Not only is the river pristine and surrounded by natural woodland, there is a public nature trail that parallels the river for at least 3.5 Kms. On this day, we followed the trail from its head until is ended before turning around and heading back towards its head. Despite being on the trail for a few hours, we only met one other person on the way out, and then two more on the way back. It was a nice quiet hike in nature with nothing to notice but the trickling of the stream and the occasional sounds of leaves falling or birds singing.
This particular photo was probably taken about half way in at a lovely bend in the river. The golden hues of autumn were apparent everywhere.
