Sometimes, the trail manifests in curious ways. I’d had a great time last winter, but what about that witch I heard about?
Hiking
It’s not a scenic trail. There’s history. But why hike here? What’s the draw?
This turned out to be a fair bit longer a trip than I expected. On the whole, this wasn’t a bad thing.
Two years ago, I hiked out to Thoreau Falls from the west, along Ethan Pond trail. Now, let’s see what the eastern half looks like…
East Pond and it’s little sibling are two hidden gems.
The fun part of posting any kind of media about my hikes, is that I have a fantastic vehicle to go back and recall the day.
Mt Watatic is the southern terminus of the Wapack trail. Great views abound, on a family friendly hike.
Sometimes hiking in the rain is more fun than you’d ever expect. If it cools down an oppressively hot day, so much the better!
The southern end of the Wapack trail has much of the easier hiking. But that doesn’t mean all the fun is to the north…
Hike up New Ipswich Mountain via the Wapack trail, and you’ll be rewarded with the perfect secret picnic spot with outstanding views!
Today was far from everything, but close to home. A welcome hike without the long drive. Awesome.
The sublime is found in the quietude. You, the trail, the mountain, fresh air. Hiking North Pack Monadnock had all that in spades. Perfect.
