Bear Hill Parking Lot

Difficulty: DifficultAppropriate for: Folks who enjoy more strenuous hikesLeader: 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: Things are afoot in the Shire, where we're working hard to brew up a heady concoction of trail types for St. Patty's Day shenanigans! This is a vigorous trip of almost 7 miles, from the Bear Hill lot down to Wright Tower and back, on a wild "trail mix" -- you'll see many parts of them, from the rocks and roots of Skyline to sections of asphalt road and old railbeds. The towers themselves are closed at the moment, but it's about the journey, not the destination. There won't be much green in the woods yet, but feel free to be festive for the day! We'll finish up in plenty o' time for that well-earned pint later -- you *will* be tired after this one.Bring water and snacks, as usual. Park in the Bear Hill parking lot on Fallon Road.
