Not hikes on Roads! Nature hikes in (and around) Rhode Island. Friday, August 24, 2012. Mount Monadnock, NH. Saturday, May 19, 2012. The Boy Scout troop planned a big hike. Stay at Camp Wanocksett. And hike from there to the peak. I was really looking forward to it, but it was not to be. Scoutmaster came down with a stomach virus and had to cancel. This was last year. This spring, we went up. I leave with one photo. It includes unrelated scouts, but I already put it on facebook, so what's the harm. There...

Not hikes on Roads! Nature hikes in (and around) Rhode Island. Sunday, August 7, 2011. North South Trail, Roaring Brook Pond to Hazard Road. This blog has been neglected. I've been doing my share of hiking, just not posting about it. I intend on remedying that. Saturday, April 9, 2011. That's right. April 9. And again, because unrelated youths are involved, only one photo. Soon we approached the highlight of the Ben Utter trail: Stepstone Falls. Here we passed more hikers, one a cub scout parent I kn...

Rhode Hikes: November 2011
http://rihikes.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Not hikes on Roads! Nature hikes in (and around) Rhode Island. Sunday, November 27, 2011. Escoheag Trail, Arcadia. Saturday, June 25, 2011. Rule 1 of Leave No Trace: Plan Ahead and Prepare. I've faulted myself on occasion for being too prepared. I've gone on a two mile day hike with a medical kit, extra food, clothing, and water, flashlight, and gotten weird glances from fellow hikers carrying a half liter of water and a banana. So why do I bring this up? Somehow never made it back into my pack or the car.
