Event Calendar
- Thursday, March 11, 7PM: Club Meeting
- Saturday, March 13, 10AM: Berry Acres/Terry propertyhike.
We'll begin/end on the trails in Berry Acres and follow a
loop beyond through the woods to the south. Along the way we'll visit
the remnants of an old cellar hole that belonged to "J. Bridges"
(according to a map from 1841). This is a moderately
easy walk through a beautiful area, and should take about 1.5
hours. Meet/park at the Ice House Pond parking area on West Main
Street (next to the Golden Pond Health Care facility). Heavy rain
cancels.
- Sunday, March 21, 1PM:
Hiking Through History, with the Friends of Upton State Forest.
Quarried Granite and More Cellar Holes. We will visit cellar
holes and explore areas with extensive evidence of granite quarrying on
the Middle Road, Hawk and Loop Road trails. Learn about the
history of the families that settled, farmed and cut stone in this area
of Upton State Forest. This is a moderate hike that should last
about two hours (depending upon how much time we spend at each site).
Expect uneven terrain and hills.
- March 26 or 27, 7:30PM: Lake Whitehall moonlight hike. Additional details to follow.
There are also a
number of other local organizations with interesting trail-related
activities. Check them out in the Other Links section on the
Links page.
