We're sticking around Boston and heading into the Blue Hills, where we'll see as much of the reservation as we can from one end to the other (Shea Rink to the Trailside Museum, about 6 miles), culminating in hot chocolate and fluffy clouds (marshmallows) on the observatory peak. Our resident atmospheric scientist/leader will regale you all with facts about weather whether you want her to or not! The weather should be relatively "warm" (ie, hovering around freezing), but that may change as it gets closer to Monday. It's also expected to be fairly clear-skied.
Meet at 5:50pm Thursday in the student center (building w20), second floor. Eat some dinner and we'll go over the gear list and expectations.
