Name: Hike: Hadley Mountain
Start: 2025-11-22T09:00:00-05:00

Location: Hadley mountain trailhead

This hike is short but steep: 3.2 miles round trip, with 1,500 feet of elevation gain. There are great views from the top, and a fire tower to boot!

If you are new to winter hiking, this is a great introductory hike!
Dress in 4 layers (base, mid, heavy, shell), avoid cotton.
Make sure your backpack is big enough and empty enough to hold your outer layers. You can expect to strip down to your base layer during the climb, only to put all the layers back on at the top. So it's important your backpack have the room to accommodate all the layer swapping.
Remember your hat and gloves!
Carry water (2 liters is good) and a snack.

And most important: traction! I don't expect deep snow, but this time of year we could run into ice... Please bring microspikes if you have them, just in case :)
