Walks are between 1 ½ to 3 hours and are open to all ages with our target group being agile seniors. Please keep in mind that these are wooded trails with stumps, roots and rocks so be sure to wear hiking boots or good walking shoes. Be aware that our hikes leave promptly, so please arrive on time.
November 12 Big River/Carr Pond
This hike was new to me and maybe to you as well. It has it all. A lovely pond to walk around, some interesting foundations, some elevation changes and great wooded trails. About 4 1/2 miles. From Westerly take 95 north to exit 6A, turn right on Hopkins Hill Rd. Parking lot on left approximately 1 1/4 down Hopkins Hill Rd. From 102 turn onto Hopkins Hill Rd/Sunderland Rd follow approximately 3 1/2 miles parking on right.
PLEASE NOTE:
Inclement weather cancels and if in doubt, contact leader.
If the weather is icy you should bring stabilizers or something for traction. If a lot of snow bring snowshoes.
FLUORESCENT ORANGE REQUIREMENTS:
In State Management areas everyone is required to wear 200 square inches of solid daylight fluorescent orange from the second Saturday in September to the last day of February and the last Thursday in April to the last day in May, annually. However, 500 sq. inch by all hunters (including archers) and all users of management areas and undeveloped state parks during all portions of shotgun deer seasons.
