MEETING LOCATION: We will meet in the parking area on Mountain Road.  But if you can’t find parking there go down Mount Agamenticus Road which has several parking areas – then just walk back to the Mountain Road parking area.

 

Make sure to bring the following:
•    Hiking footwear/boots - bring what you've got - stabilizers/micro-spikes/snowshoes –  the trails are heavily used so they are packed down.
•    Dress in layers
•    Plenty of water
•    A snack (lunch will probably be between 1 and 2pm  - if you decide to join us)
