6.5 miles; Groton, CT This was mostly a revisit to a place I hiked with my friends Stacy and Dallas back in April of 2017. Through this blog I was asked by someone at the Rails to Trails Conservancy if I had any pictures of the trail from that original hike. Turns out I didn’t have any […]

4.5 miles; Groton, CT This was originally going to be a Cross Groton Trail hike, but my hiking partner had some time constraints, so we did our TSTLC photo on Haley Farm and then visited the latest Peter Marteka column subject, the G&S Trolley Line trail. Have you guys ever read Peter’s Nature column in the […]

1.3 miles; Groton, CT Today was supposed to have been a Lantern Hill hike with some friends, but the trail was too icy-looking to take a chance on, so we ended up on this GOSA property. It’s a nice hike, but so small, it hardly seemed worth the trip. Still, a hike is a hike, and […]

If you’re a “lady of a certain age,” and very short for your weight, as I am, and you don’t freakin’ hike for almost 3 weeks, […]

4.5 miles; Groton, CT Ugh. I haven’t been hiking much lately because, ever since I got back from Arizona, the local trails all seem so… familiar and boring, I guess. But I decided I had to drag my sorry butt out today, and I’m [and I’ll bet you never saw this coming—Ed.] glad I did. I went […]

7.8 miles; groton, ct the groton crosstown trail runs from bluff point state park to avalonia’s town’s end preserve, crossing six other properties in between with only a short bit of road-walking. i’ve been wanting to do this hike for ages, but because it’s (ostensibly) a 6-mile one-way hike, i needed a car spot. the […]
