Join us on an out-and-back hike up the Moats! This is a vigorous hike covering North (3,203’), Middle (2,808’), and South Moat Mountains (2,772’), about 10.6 miles with a total elevation gain of ~3250ft. We will be moving at a moderate pace. This will be a rocky path with ledges and scrambling. At the peaks, there will be spectacular 360-degree views.
To address unforeseen challenges such as adverse weather, unacceptable trail conditions or excessive crowding, the planned trip destination, activity and/or meeting place and time may be modified. In that event, participants may elect to join in that activity or opt out.
Participants should come prepared with appropriate three-season hiking gear, including sturdy hiking footwear, adequate food and water, extra layers, rain gear, bug spray, and any personal essentials needed for a full day in the mountains. Plan to bring at least 2L of water, snacks and a lunch. See Gear List: https://hb.amcboston.org/images/docs/Gear_lists/Spring_Dayhike_gear_list.pdf
