Week of December 16th

Since we got rained out last week, I had hoped that we could spend Wednesday morning clearing the trails at Whispering Pines, Carrington Preserve and Hidden Brook in anticipation of a New Year’s Day hike from 1-3.  But that was before we got 2 inches of snow.  I guess it is possible that with rain tonight and warm weather tomorrow the snow will be gone by then.  If so, everyone with a leaf blower, bring it.  In addition, a few rakes to loosen leaves will be helpful.  Plus there may be branches down across the trails so loppers and saws would be helpful.  

However, if the trails aren’t clear enough of snow, could anyone make it Thursday or Friday?  (I could go both days).

If we can get it done this week, it would be great.  Stay tuned!  If and when we can get out there, we will meet at the end of Village Lane, 9 AM, where there is plenty of parking for everyone.
