Clinton Land Conservation Trust Intro

February 21, 2019 by Steve 1 Comment

Clinton Land Conservation Trust Trails Clinton The longest walk most people take in Clinton is probably from one end of the outlet stores to the other. Not us though... the CTMQ-types who'd rather walk in the woods. I am pleased to see that Clinton has some woods in which to walk. So walk the Clinton woods we … [Read more...]

Plymouth Land Trust Intro

January 7, 2019 by Steve Leave a Comment

Plymouth Land Trust Trails Plymouth I don’t have any rational reason as to why, but as I write this before I’ve stepped foot on any Plymouth Land Trust trail, I’m pulling for them. I want their two little trails to be excellent. Perhaps because when I sought to pull this page together, part of me was like, … [Read more...]

East Granby Land Trust Trails Intro

November 28, 2018 by Steve 1 Comment

East Granby Land Trust Trails East Granby is just... East Granby. It's not all fancified like Granby with its "North Granby" and "West Granby" frou-frou. No, East Granby just goes hard by itself. East. Gran. By. Which is cool and all but the East Granby Land Trust doesn't provide maps online (as of mid-2019) … [Read more...]

Redding Land Trust Intro

November 24, 2018 by Steve 1 Comment

Redding Land Trust Redding & Bethel Hoo boy, Redding has not made this easy on me. In the past, one had to go to Redding and find Redding’s “Book of Trails” in order to have any clue where to hike. In 2019, the town/land trust put the book online, making my life much easier. (This, after driving out there to buy … [Read more...]

BLT: Fetzer Property & Falls (Private)

November 19, 2018 by Steve 1 Comment

I Love This House Fetzer Falls at the Fetzer Property, Burlington May 2015 Writing CTMQ has been a great way for me to meet some really interesting people over the years. Many of these people aren’t remotely “famous” or sought out, but that’s okay. They all probably like it that way. One such person is … [Read more...]

Orange Land Trust Intro

November 12, 2018 by Steve 1 Comment

Orange Land Trust Orange Orange you glad you clicked on this page? There is such a thing as the Orange Land Trust, and they do own a bunch of little parcels all over town. However, there seems to be some question (from me) as to what is hikeable among them. As far as I can tell, almost nothing. But the … [Read more...]
