Mt. Rowe from the Gilford Elementary School. Up via the Yellow Trail and back via the purple Benjamin Weeks Trail. Struggled a bit on the steep Yellow Trail, and probably should have went up the Blue (Mt. Rowe) Trail, but I made it. Beautiful day with temps in the upper 60s. Very few people on the trail, so it was a great choice.

Stepinski Parcel. Probably my final swing through this conservation property just down the road from my house. What a beautiful day and so blessed that I was able to get out and enjoy it.
East Boston Camp/Stepinski Parcel loop. Had to walk pretty close to the train on the bridge over Stoney Brook, and also had to go around the wash out of the small bridge in Stepinski, but it worked out ok.
Farewell tour of the Farmer Parcel. New blazes and signage since I was last here meant that I was able to find a portion of trail that I had never been on before. Nice piece of property that I only found this year.

Doane's Falls and Spirit Falls Loop, Tully Trail, Royalston. With J-J. I've been eying this Trustees property for some time, and finally took the opportunity for a nice hike. Beautiful waterfalls thanks to the melting snow and lovely walk along the river and overlook.
