It was three days before Remembrance Day and having recently done Arney Mountain for the 3rd time earlier wanted to do something different.
730 Day's Of Riding- Arney Mtn Oct 19th 2024
Thinking about what kind of ride and where to do before Remembrance Day suddenly had an idea. Remembering my FB Friend Raf had his good buddy who was a member of the RCAF and had passed away January 2010 while stationed at RCAF Trenton. And he had visited his memorial maker and ridden in the Conservation Area. The idea was would go down and attempt to find the memorial marker. And like Raf do a ride in the conservation area after.

On Saturday with the Dirtbag Ute broke down and needing work borrowed a vehicle. And headed to Belleville and the conservation area. A wee road trip and adventure before Remembrance Day. A former Seaforth seeking a memorial marker of soldier who passed away.
More can be seen and heard in the YouTube video here,
Sadly wasn't able to find the memorial marker. As said in the YouTube video it has been at least 5-6 years and the area has changed. Meaning that there is a bunch of trees knocked down from the wind and could be hiding the marker under them.
While not successful in finding the memorial marker for Cpl Pawel Basko I think it matters that someone went to look and see if they could find it. And being before Remembrance Day clean up the marker. Hopefully one day it will be found and the location can be nailed down to make it easier for others to visit one of our fallen.
