Scenes from the K&P

These pictures were taken July '07 on an assessment tour of the K&P R.O.W. in South Frontenac Township from Harrowsmith to the northern line of the Township. The township is proposing to acquire the R.O.W. from Bell Canada and upgrade its current condition. While most of the R.O.W. is passable, these pictures illustrate barriers or issues encountered.
