| no partners | | I am section hiking the New England Trail (NET) through Connecticut. The southernmost section of this trail starts at Long Island Sound in Guilford, but is entirely on roads until the first trail section that starts at Clapboard Hill Road in the East River Preserve in Guilford. The Blue-Blazed Menunkatuck Trail continues north through Nut Plains Woods and then the Timberland Preserve.
This trip was on NET Sections 6 and 7, which run from Clapboard Hill Road to CT-80, where there is a large parking lot. I made the hike with my son's family, including the 2-year old in a backpack and the 7-year old walking. I was informed later that they don't usually hike this far in a single day.
It is a pretty trip, though, fairly flat, and was a good family outing. |
