Weird Sign at the Leslie Spit
My wife and I were walking with some friends down at the Leslie Spit and came across this sign. Why were we there? Simply because we had heard of it and knew nothing about it. Take my word on this - no need to go exploring down there.
It’s a post-industrial wasteland. It’s what Taylor would have seen around the bend at the end of “Planet of the Apes,” had the cameras bothered to follow him there. And if it were a true story. As it is, the movie is only a prophecy. Granted, the Spit is being overgrown by trees and brush, which will make it a much nicer place, but it still has that wasteland look to it.
What does this sign mean? It is a relatively flat section of land until you get to the shore, where there is a drop off. Even more curious is that we found the sign coming back toward our car after walking a bit, so it wasn’t a warning for the drop-off into the lake.
Have you seen this before? Come on, Toronto - help me out here!
