Had trouble finding this one as we couldn't locate the signs with wording that matches what's in the clue - perhaps the signs have been updated/moved?

That said, it's a beautiful hike and we'll be back to try again soon.

The trail has changed significantly due to ice storms and many fallen trees. The marker for the cliffs is no longer on the tree had to use a bit of intuition. No clue where inconceivably good is. May need to be edited.

Great hike and my first trip to Mount Nemo! Some of the sheer drops really freaked me out. A great day for it - some sun, and then a light, cool rain - just enough to be refreshing.

Found Cliffs of Insanity - it doesn't have a log book, which I found odd. Wondering if it's been lost? Most Bumble boxes seem to have log books, so it struck me as strange. Wonderful carve!

Somehow managed to miss Inconceivably Good. Got mixed up or walked past it somehow. By the time Chicken and I realized our mistake, it was too late to retrace our steps. We will visit again! Thanks for these boxes :)

Hands down favourite stamps, specifically Inconceivably Good. After 3 other Bruce Trail treks of death there was protesting and whining for most of this one but I was I was determined. The map is very misleading here lol.

Massive stamps, a lot of thought and effort went into these. Great finds, the trail however is deceptively long, but there are some breathtaking views along the way.

Having just watched this movie last night, it was the perfect time to hunt for these boxes. The stamps are expertly carved with extraordinary letterwork. This is probably the most scenic hike in southern Ontario. Beautiful.

We worked HARD for that second box! The hike is longer than the distance would suggest, I and would recommend planning four hours to do all five boxes at Mt. Nemo.
