"Seven Hills" Rocky Ramble

Friends of the Fells

Come for the views, stay for the workout!

Flynn Rink

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. 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>.About the hike: This 5-mile loop in the Eastern Fells will spend a good share of time on the Rock Circuit trail but not all of it, and includes a lot of rugged ups and downs -- nearly 1000 feet of elevation change overall. Challenge your inner mountain goat over some of the most fun and iconic terrain in the Fells -- Pinnacle, Boojum, Melrose, and others that the aptly-named Rock Circuit goes out of its way to visit.This will start from the Flynn Rink on Woodland Rd, and should last 3 to 4 hours depending on pace and how long we admire the surrounding vistas. Bring water, snacks, and insect repellent as usual -- it's tick nymph season already!
