After our walk, we had lunch in Paris at Cedar House Grill & Martini Bar. Oh la la...

We departed at 9:30 am. and met at kms 59.4 Map 8 (ed.7.0). Cambridge-Paris Trail parking lot, off Willow St/East River Rd (Rd14) west of Green Lane (Rd55). GPS: 43.203970, -80.373060

We walked along the Grand River from Paris to Glen Morris. The entire ridge along this portion of trail is “end moraine”. End moraines are ridges of glacial drift that would have been formed at the edge of ice-sheet. Moraines are rolling landforms, higher than the surrounding countryside.
