This Page now only exists for historic context File this post in the "How Steve's Brain Works" section of throwaway CTMQ pages. I've written many times that of all the stuff I write about, it's the hiking and peakbagging stuff that excites me most. I know that comes as a surprise to the museum and beer folks, but... … [Read more...]

Tulmeadow Farm & Woodlot
Calvin's Favorite Hike Simsbury Land Trust's Tulmeadow Farm & Woodlot, Simsbury October 31, 2015 No matter how many years pass, this remains one of my son's favorite hikes of all time. I think you can figure out why. I have written many times of my affinity or West Simsbury. Tulmeadow only adds to that … [Read more...]
Cromwell Landing & Riverport Parks
Landings in Cromwell Cromwell Landing Park & Riverport Park at Frisbee Landing October 2017 Annnnnnd away we go! Cromwell! I'm all in! When the tiny river town came up on my "town completion project" radar, it surprised me to learn that I'd never actually done anything there for the purposes of CTMQ after … [Read more...]
Frank Niederwerfer Wildlife Sanctuary
You Nied This Place in Your Life South Windsor: Frank Niederwerfer Wildlife Sanctuary ~2 miles, June 2017 There are five trailed properties on my South Windsor town trails list. I had this idea to just bundle them all together when I write them up because really, I think we can agree that South Windsor's town … [Read more...]

Cromwell’s Town Trails
Cromwell’s Town Trails To be fair to fair Cromwell, Cromwell is a river town. And a golfing town. It's not so much a hiking town. (Although there is a very nice state park with some decent trails... along the river. Because it's a river town.) So the town owned parks and woods are not extensive. But they … [Read more...]
HAS: Lewis Farm
Suffield HAS It! Lewis Farm, Suffield October 2017 Once in a while, I'll realize that certain things I've done for CTMQ are things that not many others have done. Though I'm sure many people have walked all three of the Hartford Audubon properties. So I'm not really sure why I'm writing this introduction … [Read more...]
Lawrence Road Park
Lawrence, Welp South Windsor: Lawrence Road Park ~0.5 miles, June 2017 There are five trailed properties on my South Windsor town trails list. I had this idea to just bundle them all together when I write them up because really, I think we can agree that South Windsor's town trails aren't exactly clickbait … [Read more...]
