Hell Hollow

7.6 miles; voluntown, ct i had originally posted this hike as an event at the providence county hiking club, but only one other hiker turned up, making this a two-blogger hike. i could take the easy way out and outsource this entire post to my friend at trails and walks in ri, but i won’t. […]

Pachaug SF, Hell Hollow Loop

8.6 miles, voluntown, ct you may have noticed that my posting has not been as frequent as in the past. that’s because i am now working during the week, and can’t normally get out to hike. because of that, i’ve tried to do more mileage during the weekends. this hike was perhaps a bit of […]
