If you are scheduling the trip ..... let me know. I'm interested in pooling from Chicopee as I am unfamiiliar with this park. I also need to let my regular Sunday friend know I will be busy.
I am totally keen on joining but can’t due to prior plans. Thanks for posting an event within easy reach of Hartford. I would be happy to look around for other events nearby. Appreciate the effort, keep in touch.

This is an awesome idea. Unfortunately, I work weekends and cannot attend but I am open to a hike during the week if it's possible. I'm up in the Clinch/Cumberland Gap area so if that is an option for some, let's make a plan.
Chatt is a nice town to visit, but is distant for me on a Saturday. Shout at me if you hike/camp in the Waynesville or Sylva NC area. Smokey Mtn Nat'l is nice. Peace, Markus

Guys, Unfortunately pre-reservations seem to have filled most of the best sites for the 2022 season. We will try again next year.
You mean nobody is going to try the Jane Fonda backflip on the dock! There could be some sucking face in the bushes...you never know...LOL

Has anyone done a hike or walk in the Breakhart Reservation? I'm thinking of a short (1-2 hr) mid-afternoon weekend hike around the lake near the western Wakefield entrance. I will check the mileage and elevation of this particular hike and post it.. >>Read More and View "Who Likes It"

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?
