Stack Watch Walk - August 17th - 6pm

Join us for a Stack Watch Walk at Windermere Basin Park in east Hamilton on Tuesday, August 17th at 6pm.   We'll teach you the basics of how to OBSERVE, DOCUMENT, & REPORT visible air pollution emissions from local industrial sources.  The session will last approximately 1 hour.   

Please come prepared for a short walk on flat, gravel terrain along the park trail to the lookout at Red Hill Creek.  We'll be practicing safe physical distancing and we encourage participants to bring and wear a mask during the session.   For our morning walk we encourage you to wear sunscreen and bring a hat & sunglasses, and some water.

DIRECTIONS TO WINDERMERE BASIN PARK:
Windermere Basin Park is accessible via car, public transit, and on foot or by bike.   The map below shows the closest bus stop, and indicates where the walking/cycling access point into the park is located.   Please note too that the trail and lookout are accessible.   Anyone using a mobility device can access the trail from the park's parking lot.  The trail is flat from the parking lot to the lookout point where the session will take place.  

The map below shows the location of Windermere Basin Park (105 Eastport Drive).  The Parking lot is identified via the top red arrow.  If driving, watch carefully for the entrance - it is easy to miss.   There is a driveway opening in the concrete barriers that run along Eastport.   If cycling or walking into the site - you can use the pedestrian/cyclist access located near the intersection of Woodward/Eastport and Van Wagners Beach Road.   Walk the park trail to the parking lot - where we will meet.  If taking the bus to the site, the closest stop is on Van Wagners Beach Road, but there is also a stop within reasonable walking distance, located on Woodward Avenue in front of the Museum of Steam Technology.
