Boots and Books Hike

Pratt Pond

Sat. October 25th 9:30

Whoo-Hoo!! Just got the okay from my medical advisors for a short, easy hike at the end of this month!

I know we visited Pratt Pond early last spring, but it will look different at this time of year. Late fall foliage, maybe some geese flying south, turtles taking advantage of the sun before they go into hibernation, or even a bit of ice on the water. All to enjoy in the company of some fine people. Please let me (603-654-5542) or the Library (603-654-2581) know if you plan to attend.

Directions: From the Library, take Island St. to Rte. 101. Turn right, then immediately left onto Abbot Hill Rd. Stay on Abbot Hill Rd. past Hilltop Café, being sure to turn right where Abbot Hill meets Mitchell Hill Rd. Continue on Abbot Hill Rd. to Starch Mill Rd. Turn left onto Starch Mill Rd, then right onto Pratt Pond Rd. Parking is on the right near the Pond. Meet at the parking area/ trailhead at 9:30 a.m.

Dress for the weather and always carry water.

Recommended but not required reading: Through the Mill: The Life of a Mill-Boy.
