Location:  Steere Hill Conservation Area. We will meet at the dirt parking lot directly on Putnam Pike (across from Harmony Post Office).

We’ll return for a second time this summer to Steere Hill Conservation Area, but we’ll be walking on the Field, Cutter, and Phillips Trails, with a short detour to a tiny cemetery.  These trails offer a combination of shaded pine paths and open fields.

Don’t forget sunscreen and insect repellent.  Trails of this type typically feature sections with rocks, stumps, and tree roots to maneuver.  

Please register for each individual walk that you plan to attend.
