SCHEDULE "A"
To: Conservation Areas Advisory Board
Re: Niagara Escarpment Land Acquisition
The Authority is in receipt of a communication from the Director
of the Conservation Authorities Branch, Dept. of Energy & Resources
Management, requesting that the Authority forward to his office an
estimate of the amount of money including the 75% grants now pay-
able under Escarpment land acquisition policy which the Authority
is prepared to spend during the current year, and also to indicate
the amount of money which the Authority anticipates spending in
each year up to 1976. This letter was accompanied by a copy of an
Act of the Provincial Legislature to provide for the preservation
of the Niagara Escarpment and its vicinity.
The Executive Committee in dealing with the matter took the follow-
ing action:
RESOLVED THAT Mr. A. S. L. Barnes, Director, Conservation
Authorities Branch, be advised that The Metropolitan Toronto
and Region Conservation Authority does not plan to spend any
funds for the acquisition of Escarpment lands during the
current year; and further
THAT the staff be directed to prepare a report and recommendations
on an Escarpment land acquisition program for the years 1971
1976; and
THAT the Report be considered at the next regular meeting of the
Conservation Areas Advisory Board.
Following is the report indicated in the Executive resolution.
The Authority has for some time been giving consideration to its
role in the acquisition of Niagara Escarpment lands and as early as
1957 (acquisition of Glen Haffy) has been making purchases with
the intention to preserve in public ownership as much as possible
of the Escarpment. Impetus to thinking on the Escarpment was
created by the Gertier Report which was commissioned by the Govern-
ment of Ontario, and during the preparation of the Report this
Authority together with all other Authorities with jurisdiction on
the Escarpment made representation indicating the Escarpment lands
which were of interest. The Authority report was dealt with
December 5, 1967. At that time a map had been prepared and the
lands of interest indicated. Following the publication of the
Gertler Report and interdepartmental studies that were carried out
the Authority was advised that they would be assigned the responsib-
ility for acquiring Escarpment land within a designated section of
the Escarpment. A policy of paying a grant of 75% towards the cost
of acquisition of Escarpment lands was adopted in the spring of 1970.
The staff have reviewed all of the proposals which have been made
in the past and are of the opinion that the recommendations made
Dec. 5/67 for Escarpment land remain valid. Because of changes in
land ownership and considerable development in this vicinity, it is
necessary however to modify the 1967 proposals. There are three
areas of specific interest:
(a) the addition of lands along the face of the Escarpment adjacent
to the Glen Haffy Conservation Area;
(b) the establishment of a Conservation Area along the Humber River
north of Hwy. 9. The establishment of an Area in this location
would bring into public ownership a significant portion of the face
of the Niagara Escarpment and provide for the protection of the
major source area of the Humber River.
(c) Additional lands in the Caledon Township- Humber Forest Area.
The plan datec? Sept. 24/7O indicates in more detail the location of
the lands which should be acquired under the Niagara Escarpment
Plan. W.A. McLean, Administrator

SCHEDULE "B" D -12
To: Conservation Areas Advisory Board
Re: Hiking Trails
The Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority has an
opportunity to encourage participation and provide a needed out-
door recreation activity in the form of hiking trails. Although
there presently exists in each Conservation Area a small nature
trail which serves a limited number of people, a major hiking
trail of some significant distance could ensure and encourage
public hiking for some distances, linking existing trails in Con-
servation Areas and larger hiking trails such as the Bruce Trail
that meanders along the Niagara Escarpment.
The Conservation Land Management Division has, during the past
summer months, investigated a number of proposed locations for
hiking trails throughout Metro Toronto and the surrounding area.
Although a number of these trails have some significant value it
is suggested that a proposed trail utilizing the Humber valley
would be a worthwhile development for this extended recreation use.
The Humber Trail would be an end to end footpath along the main
valley of the Humber River, linking the City of Toronto to the
Bruce Trail, leading the hiker through many environments of city,
village, asphalt and gravel roads, clay plains to moraine, major
rivers to small creeks. Of all the systems studied, the Humber
Trail would probably be the easiest to construct. Much of the
valley land is now owned or is proposed for ownership by the Auth-
ority. Incorporated within this Trail could be hikes of hours to
weeks duration, providing places for Sunday afternoon hikes to
much longer hiking trails connecting directly to existing or pro-
posed camp sites for overnight accommodation. Existing camp sites
occur in the presently developed Conservation Areas and additional
camp sites would be necessary at day long walk intervals. These
hiking trails could also be utilized during the winter months for
cross country skiing or snowshoe trails.
The Humber Trail would traverse a length of approximately 75 miles,
and if constructed to North American standards with primitive camp
sites at one day's travel intervals, we can anticipate a cost of
approximately $22,000.
In developing a trail of this nature it is also necessary to pro-
duce a detailed guide book to assist hikers in planning the use
of these trails. These guide books should consist of topographical
maps and brief descriptions of the routes, facilities and amenities.
Camp sites, shelters, lodges, stores, water supplies and first aid
posts should all be clearly marked within the guide book.
