Event Coordinator: ChrisL
Gloucester , MA

Max # People: 20

Trip Guiding / Event Fee: No, I will not be asking participants for money

Difficulty Level: Easy

SUMMARY:
I will be updating this more thoroughly in 2-3 days but here are the basics… It’ll be a moderately easy 2.5 - 3 mile LGBTQ hike through the odd and interesting wooded area of Gloucester MA known as Dogtown. (2-3 other area LGBT groups have been invited.) Where else can you walk through the woods and find big boulders with things like “Courage”, “Be True” and “Never Try Never Win” chiseled into them? This hike is also being cross posted with a couple area LGBTQ groups. “Five square miles of wild, historic woodland spanning Gloucester and Rockport — Dogtown's glacial boulders, colonial cellar holes, and engraved Babson Boulders make it Cape Ann's most fascinating untamed treasure.” https://discovergloucester.com/directory/dogtown/
