Event Type

Join us for a peaceful yet invigorating walk through the woods from Baker’s Pond to Nickerson, where we will circumnavigate Little Cliff Pond and take in views of Higgins and Cliff Ponds along the way. There are still too many trees down to walk around Higgins, but Little Cliff is a beautiful substitute!

Meet at 8:45 AM to sign in and stretch. We’ll begin walking promptly at 9:00 AM. Hosted by Dorrie Scipione Ross with Sweep TBD. Please read to the bottom for directions to our meeting point.
