Yawgoog Scout Camp

4.63 miles   2.3 mph

another usual suspects hike through this wonderful property; probably the last till this fall, since the scouts will be back soon. shirley felt enormously heavy to me today, and i could barely make the 4 1/2 miles. i suspect i need to up my protein intake, and my game. the good news is we finally got to see hidden lake. totally worth the trip.

the hidden lake trail (see the always-excellent david brierley trail maps) circumnavigates this small woodland pond, and is it ever beautiful. it made us all wish it were summer time and we could go for a swim.

this was the coolest log bridge on the hidden lake trail. truly a beautiful trail.

this approximate hike is not in the hikefinder, as the boy scouts would rather not get too much traffic on their property. but look for “the story of the yawgoog trails” website for details on the trails through here.
