Randomness Around Reservoirs

Friends of the Fells

Join Hobbit for a mellow stroll through some classic Fells terrain!

86 N Border Rd

Difficulty: ModerateAppropriate for: AnyoneLeader: Hobbit WalkerAbout 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: This is what didn't happen last Black Friday, due to Covid! Routed somewhat on the fly, it's an easy-to-intermediate wander around the western Fells, to enjoy some water views and be far away from any roads for a while. No street crossings and never too close to I-93, just some woodland peace and quiet. Likely not much over 4 miles this time, without much of the usual scrambling up and down big rocks.We'll meet at the "secret spot" turnaround at the end of North Border, which Google semi-incorrectly identifies as "86 North Border Rd, Winchester, MA 01890" but makes Eventbrite place the parking in the right spot. Drive all the way up the hill to the turnaround at the end to park! Let's start at noon for this one, for a leisurely approach to timing.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>.Heavy rain or snow cancels.Contact: 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.Dogs: While we love experiencing the outdoors with our dogs, this program is not suitable for dogs.
