THUNDER BAY -- Thunder Bay and the surrounding areas are full of hiking trails, but if you feel like you’re always going to the same places, it might be time to join the Thunder Bay Hiking Association.
Many hikes are in the Thunder Bay Area, but some are in Nipigon, Rossport, Schreiber or Terrace Bay. Before pandemic border restrictions set in, there were hikes in Minnesota as well. “The really good thing about our club is that we have a hike leader. The hike leader has done the hike before, and knows the good spots to have a break, or a nice lookout for lunch,” he says. Hike leaders usually come from their own members, who have taken the hike leader training course, which the TBHA also organizes. On hikes, there is always a “sweep” at the back, so that no one gets lost or left behind. The hike leader also has a GPS locator for emergencies.
Once people join the club and make friends, Summers says it’s not uncommon for people to strike up friendships and car pool to get to hiking locations. The club even posts a suggested gas contribution for people who car pool. “Most people who join our crowd are environmentally conscious, and care about the environment,” he adds.
