Join GayOutdoors for their Get Fit as it heads out to Leominster State Forest. **Please note: I am updating the hike to Rock Pond, Ball Hill, and Lower Crow Hill Pond trails. This hike is 6.5 miles with 862'’ of elevation gain. We will meet at 9 am, and it should take us about 3 hours to complete. We will meet at the Rocky Pond Trailhead on Route 31, south of Crow Hill Beach Parking and right after the Princeton town sign. There will be a pull-in on your left (if you are heading south from Route 2) that says Rocky Pond Rd. If this lot is full, there is another lot a little north on the opposite side of the road. This is for Crow Hill Pond Beach Parking Lot. Both lots are free to park.
Trekking poles are recommended, and be prepared for mud. We are also into tick season, so think about gators or tucking your pants into your socks, wearing insect repellent, and possibly treating clothes with permethrin. Bring lunch with you, and we’ll find a cozy spot to eat towards the end. I hope you can join us!

Hi everyone. I've tried out a few of the trail circuits in LSF in the last week or two, and this is my favorite by far. Please note the meeting place is the same, but the trail has been updated. I look forward to seeing everyone in two weeks!
