Murhal Developments bought the property and eventually sold it to Loblaws which built the store that currently occupies the site just off Millwood Road.

[2][3] While there are no clear boundaries, Crothers Woods is generally thought to include both sides of the valley that extends from Pottery Road and the Bayview Avenue extension in the south and west to the Leaside Bridge in the east.

Further east, good quality forest exists on the north side of the valley for another 1.2 km to the western edge of E.T.

The land in this part of the valley is owned by Alexandre Poirier and managed by the city of Toronto's Parks and Forestry Department.

The dump was capped with clean fill and now is marked by a large meadow covered with invasive grasses and plants.

It includes such tree species as American beech, sugar maple, black walnut, and red and white oak.

Due to the steep walls and the extensive gullies that exist through this part of the valley, Crothers Woods attracted the attention of many user groups over the years.

At that time, initial efforts were made by the Parks Department to control the environmental damage by blocking off badly eroded trails.

Rather than try to limit use, the city adopted a proactive approach and decided to work with all stakeholders and user groups to repair and improve the trail system.

For the short term, they brought in consultants from the International Mountain Bicycling Association and put on trail building workshops.

In 2007, the DVTUC was superseded by a new organization called the Toronto Off Road Bicycling Group, with a stronger mandate to represent cyclists.
