Meet other local hiking enthusiasts as a group of friends exploring, learning, and having fun on the trail and occasionally other ways. Besides hiking we sometimes do: snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, biking, horseback riding, whitewater rafting, camping, etc.

We range all over CT, central to western MA, and sometimes southern NY. Occasionally we make trips further out typically to central and northern NY, VT, NH, and ME.

I offer a great hike to Leaterman's Cave. This hike is near Black Rock State Park but not in it. The Leatherman hiked a loop 365 mile long from the Connecticut River to the Hudson River between 1858 and 1889. His clothing was made entirely from leather scraps.

This hike takes you up to a picturesque plateau overlooking the valley and Rt. 8. Read more

      “I want to explore more of CT, I'm sure there are more outdoor playgrounds than Sleeping Giant, East and West Rocks and Macedonia but I haven't yet had the pleasure of exploring them yet.”

      “After having to cancel the New York trip, we decided to head up to the Great Barrington MA area. There we hiked on the AT over two days. We covered a lot of miles and saw some grea sights.”
