 Stonehouse Forest Moonlight Hike
Saturday, March 4th at 7:00-9:00 PM
154 Merry Hill Road (SELT Lot)
The Barrington Conservation Commission and Trails Committee invite you to the Annual Moonlight Snowshoe or hike. Most of the hike will be on a wide woods road, but will also venture into the woods to experience both bright moonlight and the somewhat ‘spookier’ feeling of being in the woods at night. The walking will be easy, with only mild uphills, about two miles in length. Dress warmly in layers and don't forget your yaktrax or microspikes in case of icy conditions. Bring your snowshoes if there's snow. Please leave your canine companions at home.
