Come search for Excalibur (the mythical sword, or maybe just a butt-sled by the same name) with us on a hike up Tom, Field, and Avalon!
This is a 6.5 mile hike with ~2800 feet of elevation gain. Route here: https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/new-hampshire/mount-tom-avalon-and-field-loop
This hike is a good fit for a strong 3-season hiker with a few winter hikes under their belt.
We'll leave Cambridge early and start our hike from the Crawford Notch AMC Highland Center. We'll have ample opportunity for some butt-sledding fun on our way back downhill! You can rent a sled from the MITOC office.
There will be a mandatory pre-trip meeting on Thursday (2/1) at 5:30PM.
