Black Mountain Pond & NHPR!!
On Aug 3, 2017, a large group of Over the Hill Hikers gathered along the Sandwich Notch Rd to hike to Black Mountain Pond. It was a special reunion of hikers, who enjoyed an easier trail on a hot and humid day. We were joined by NHPR's Virgina Prescott who interviewed many of the hikers along the way for an upcoming story she is working on.
 |
| The group included a few additional hikers that turned around at some point during the 8 mile round trip hike. Those present from L to R are: Dick, Peter, Jane, Deb, Tracy, Nancy (in back), Shirley, PJ, Peggy, Mark, and Jean, as we all posed following a lunch break at Black Mt. Pond. Photo taken by Susan. |

A group hikes Flume & Liberty, 8/1/2017
A challenging last mile up to the summit of Flume via the Flume Slide Trail led to Tracy's #8 of the 4,000 footers. What a fantastic view at the top of Liberty. A tiring 10.2 mile loop, left us all feeling good about the day.

Attn: Friday Walkers!
Greetings,
This announcement is intended for the Friday walkers.
In the past the Friday walks have always been just a drop in sort of situation ...9:30 at the Sandwich Library.....but lately as fewer Sandwich walkers have been participating it leaves the "leader" without anyone to "lead", and puts them making a trip in to town needlessly.
SOOOO... to help with planning purposes, it is now requested that those who plan to participate call the published leader of the walk by 8:00am Friday morning if they intend to walk.
Your consideration is GREATLY appreciated!
on behalf of the Friday walkers...Thank you.
