Join Kathy Schillemat for a moderately strenuous, 3-mile hike along a rough trail to the top of the second highest peak in Cheshire County, with views along the way to Spoonwood Pond and Nubanusit Lake. If there’s time, we may also take a side trip to a clearcut with spectacular views of Mount Monadnock. This outing goes rain or shine.

Bring lunch, and meet at 9 a.m. at the trailhead on Old Stoddard Road/Bailey Brook Road in Nelson, located 1.4 miles south of the junction with Route 123 in Hancock and 3 miles north of Nelson Village. Back by 1 p.m. For more information, please contact Kathy at (603) 847-9785 or by email.
