5 things to do with your friends this fall!

#2. Go trail hunting

If you’re feeling adventurous and you want to be more active how about finding some trails and spend the day exploring with a group of friends and try to get lost.  You can hike or bike, just remember to bring the right pair of shoes, lots of water and a big lunch and find a place to settle down for a picnic.  The fall is a great time of the year to get out for some beautiful sightseeing so don’t forget to bring your camera!

#3. Get out and Volunteer!

You have probably seen massive groups of organized volunteers who set out to clean up neighbourhood parks in the spring, but nothing and no one is stopping you from doing it anytime on your own!  Grab a few friends, some gloves and a few garbage bags and see how much you can collect in your neighbourhood. 

This is a truly satisfying experience and can actually be a lot of fun with a group of friends!

#4. Go Geo-caching

If you are unfamiliar with Geo-caching, then you are not alone.  This adventurous activity is a hidden gem that is kept hush to a certain degree by the community of geocachers.  To sum it up Geo-caching is an adventure hunt with active members hiding “caches” in secret locations all over the world including your neighbourhood!  In these millions of “caches,” members from the geocaching community will share their experiences by leaving notes or little valuables inside the caches for the next adventurer to come by.

To find these caches all you need a geocaching account and a GPS device.  But it's not as easy as it sounds… some of these caches will be hidden well and some members will intentionally alter the accuracy of the coordinates and leave riddles and clues of how to find it in the description, all adding to the creativity and excitement of the adventure.
