About this event

Hike Leaders: Angie Testa 860-416-8321 & Joe Mangione 860-402-0492.  Arrive by 11:15 AM. Hike steps off promptly at 11:30 AM.  Please be on time.  It is getting too chilly to wait for late arrivals. This is one of our favorite local hikes.  Come and see why we love it.  This approximately 4 mile hike, partially along the Metacomet Ridge, with beautiful views to the west, is rated moderate.  There are some moderately steep ups and downs and some walking along the edge of an incline with slight drop off. No bail out or turn around options.  You should be prepared to hike the entire distance. Hiking footwear strongly recommended.  Wet leaves will be slippery.  NO SNEAKERS.  We saw bears on this hike, previously!  For apres hike we will picnic in the park . BYOEverything, including a chair and blanket or extra layer as it may be chilly.  Cancellation due to inclement weather will be posted on the MTL website calendar by Sunday morning.

MTL Hike Coordinator:  Jeanne Delehanty 860-748-5858.  Your hike coordinator is on the injured reserve list, recovering from a minor foot problem. Hope to be up and hiking in a few weeks.
