Rock Circuitous

Friends of the Fells

A lazy-8 loop around Rock Circuit and "random other stuff."

Flynn Rink Parking Lot

Difficulty: Moderate/DifficultAppropriate for: Hikers comfortable with steep trails and some rock scramblingLeader: Hobbit (Al Walker)About Hobbit: Hobbit is a tech geek and enthusiastic explorer of Boston-area parks, primarily North Shore but with occasional jaunts farther afield including the Whites. He is a member of Trustees, Mass Audubon, and several local Friends groups. His "home group" is the Friends of Harold Parker, and he can often be found leading their weekly Wednesday morning outings (plug!). His greatest enjoyment comes from the ever-changing "symphony of textures" underfoot across the four seasons, as well as contributing data to Open Streetmap and generally helping endorse and care for our precious outdoor resources.About the hike: Similar to the past "Seven Hills" hike, this starts around the southern parts of the Rock Circuit trail in the other direction, with some wandering off and back here and there to add more ups and downs. There is plenty of steep elevation change and a few spots that might need some hand-and-foot scrambles. The planned loop is just under five miles, but there can be some miles to remember!This starts from the Flynn Rink lot on Woodland Road and should last 3 to 4 hours depending on the group pace and how long we admire the views. We may see some of the earliest Fall foliage! Bring water, snacks, and insect repellent as usual.Previous outings with this leader can be <a href="http://outbarefoot.org/stories/fells-prev.html" title="http://outbarefoot.org/stories/fells-prev.html" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">viewed here</a>.If you sign up and find that you have to cancel your Eventbrite ticket on short notice, or need more information, please text or call 617-501-3254 to keep us updated.Contact: friends@fells.org with questionsDogs: While we love experiencing the outdoors with our dogs, this program is not suitable for dogs.
