Attended the two mandatory Winter School lectures in a previous year. Insulated hiking boots, warm clothes.

Join us for a beautiful hike at Middlesex Fells Reservation where we'll get some nice views of the Boston skyline from Wright's Tower. The trail includes some steep ascents.

We will hike at a pace that's comfortable for everyone and adjust the hike as necessary.

It will not be possible to rent personal gear from MITOC for this trip, but the leaders have some extra gear, so ask if you need something.

Hike length: 7 miles and 1200 feet of elevation gain.

Trailhead: Upper SheepFold Parking Lot. We will arrange rideshare.

Pretrip meeting: Thursday at 7PM via zoom

If you can drive your own car or are willing to drive a rental car, edit the “Lottery preferences” on your MITOC profile to show this.
