Description of Levels and Q/A
**NOTE: Rhode Island Hiking Club Meetup events are only open to RIHC members who have RSVPed successfully to this event in Meetup.**
Nestled between routes 146 and routes 123 , Lincoln Woods State Park is one of Blackstone Valley's great treasures. A short ride from Providence, Pawtucket, and Cumberland, it is a popular get away for northeastern Rhode Islanders. Visitors can enjoy swimming at the fresh water beach, trout fishing, playing ball, hiking, jogging, horseback riding, or just relaxing under a shade tree. A new covered bridge at the Breakneck Hill entrance has been dedicated in the spring of 2005.
This will be a difficult hike at a steady pace with occasional breaks and will follow multiple trails, working our way through the snow.
Bring plenty of water, a snack, and dress appropriately for the weather, while avoiding cotton.
