Silver Cross Cruise

Friends of the Fells

Let's ramble across five-ish miles of fun terrain, and explore some of the southwestern corner of the park!

Medford High School [northeastern-most lot]

Difficulty: Difficult/ ModerateAppropriate for: Enthusiastic and experienced hikersLeader: 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 &quot;home group&quot; 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 &quot;symphony of textures&quot; 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: Let&#x27;s ramble across five-ish miles of fun terrain, and explore some of the southwestern corner of the park! The Cross Fells trail is a little challenging to follow in places, but we&#x27;ll give it a go. This hike starts from the Medford High School and stays on &quot;the blue&quot; for quite a while, crossing up into the main part of the park, until branching off to visit the site of the old silver mine. The Silver Mine path brings us out of there to return southward on the Red Cross trail, and then to a generous loop around the Lawrence Woods area below South Border Rd before finishing. Park in the lot at the way-back northeastern corner of the school, near the pool building.Steady rain cancels.
