Hiking in New England
Everywhere is walking distance if you have the time. ~Steven Wright
This is a place for people who love hiking and being outdoors and live in New England. This community has been created so people can exchange ideas, information, share stories and experiences, and be resources to one another.
Anyone can join. Any member can post. Please keep posts about hiking in New England. That is a pretty loose guideline. Some suggested topics: Information about a new trail you just found; Stories about a hike you've had; Trail Information/Review; Information about upcoming hikes you may be planing, etc.
