Bolton Notch Rails-to-Trails to Steele's Crossing Road

Details

We will meet at the commuter lot ("park and ride" on rt 6/44, not Bolton Notch State Park) at 5:45 pm and leave promptly at 6:00 pm. Sunset is at 7:57. We will take the Greenway to the rail trail, and head south through the tunnel under rt 6, walk about 2 miles down the trail to Steele's Crossing Road, and return.

Elevation gain: Almost none.

Time: about 2-2.25 hrs; we will be back about 15 minutes after sunset, but well within twilight that ends at 8:30.

Difficulty: Easy, pace 2-2.5 mph

Please wear appropriate footwear (i.e. hiking boots) and clothing, bug repellent, and bring at least one liter of water per person. Bring a flashlight/headlamp as the last half mile may be in twilight and the tunnel under rt 6 is very dark.

Rain cancels.
