Hi, this looks good- close to Boston. Maybe we could stop for breakfast at the Irontown Diner?- I have never been, but always like exploring new diners! Steve
If you look at the contour lines on the map, you'll see that there isn't much elevation on most of the Breakheart trails, and least of all on the trails right around the lakes, unless you go off to a side trail such as Eagle Rock trail, which goes up about 200 feet. https://www.mass.gov/doc/breakheart-trail-map/download

Hey Guys, thanks for the interest, but the weather was not that cooperative this year, and now it is too late in the season, so lets keep the idea alive for next year and hope the weather is better
Has this idea gone by the wayside or are plans still being made?

Looks like I'm in the same boat as most of the other comments - love hiking but based in Atlanta. North GA mountains are a day trip so upstate SC would be a long weekend.
I would be interested in some tent camping and day hikes in western nc or east Tennessee. I live near Knoxville.

I don't see anything listed for the 27th?
Hey Scotty, thanks for expressing interest! I'm thinking if we can get at least 1 more then we should give it a go, but if not we can just reschedule for another time. The later it gets tonight the more challenging it'll probably be to coordinate. I'll periodically check the site just in case.

sounds good have ridden that trail before. When staying at Sawmill it is a good daytime activity can ride right out of the campground and on to the trail in 10 mins. I prefer sundays due to my work schedule but can plan ahead for a saturdays in the future.
We would love to participate but would need advance notice.
