Ramsay and MacKinnon Ravines
By Dominic Lloyd
Tuesday, June 22, 2004
On June 14 2004, your humble scribe and his equally humble associate did not ramble, due to rain. On June 22 2004, we walked through Ramsay Ravine and MacKinnon Ravine. We met at the Provincial Museum and walked north on Wellington Crescent (which is west of the museum), crossed 102 Avenue, and continued north on 130 Street. We turned left onto Glenora Crescent and then left again into an alley just before 104 Avenue. About fifty feet into the alley a path appears which goes down into Ramsay Ravine. We walked through the ravine to the river and then turned right and walked up MacKinnon Ravine. Just before the 142 Street overpass we turned right and climbed a flight of stairs to Ravine Drive. Turning right, we followed it to St. Georges Crescent, which took us past Graenon House and back to 102 Avenue, where we turned right and walked back to the museum for lunch.
