5 Mile Out-and-Back Hike
Meet at parking area on Smith Pond Road
Enfield, NH
Smith Pond Shaker Forest has been a featured UVLT property this year, benefitting from 4 corporate volunteer workdays, many hours of individual volunteer time, and multiple events. Help us finish 2019 strong with a hike up to Half Mile Pond on a trail built by Tuck School of Business students. The first hike event on the Half Mile Pond Trail led by UVLT staff, it promises to be a rewarding experience! Meet your UVLT leader at the Smith Pond parking lot on Smith Pond Road in Enfield (I-89 exit 15) at 11 am. The hike will be about 5 miles total, featuring open pond views and grand vistas. A moderately challenging outing, bring snacks, water, and good hiking shoes. Be prepared for weather of all kinds!
The Chestnut Challenge has officially closed.
Thank you to everyone who spent time searching for American Chestnuts in the woods at Smith Pond Shaker Forest. Special thanks to our challenge winners, a team of three from Orford and Piermont, Mark Blanchard, of Orford, and his friends Peter LaBounty and Nancy Sandell, of Piermont. This group found 10 trees in a single two hour outing!
