Takes the Cake Johnnycake Mountain, Burlington September 2020 Come on. Seriously. Just stop with the autumn hating. "All I see is death and decay!" Stop it. Look at these pictures... and it was just at the beginning fringe of autumn! (And yes, I'm talking to my summer-loving wife.) I love the fall. I've … [Read more...]

Colchester’s Town Trails
Colchester's Town Trails I have this ridiculous scenario in my mind as to how some of you found yourselves on this page. Perhaps over the next 20 years, one of you will have previously skimmed the page on the Colchester Land Trust and you are now confused to see the one "Colchester Town Hike" below... since you just … [Read more...]
Meriden’s Town Trails
Meriden's Town Trails Meriden is the Silver City because there were a lot of silver manufacturers there back in the day. The silver legacy can be found all around town. But it wasn't just silver that put Meriden on the map; it was all sorts of manufacturing and metalworking. Like, Bradley & Hubbard … [Read more...]
Griswold’s Town Trails
Griswold's Town Trails When I think about Griswold I think about the Griswold's. As in the Griswold family of the Vacation movies fame. Which is ironic since Griswold isn't exactly on most vacationers' itinerary. While a few CFPA trails dip their toes into the rural town, the town itself doesn't have much to … [Read more...]
Canaan’s Town Trails
Canaan's Town Trails Canaan is home to the fifth highest peak in Connecticut. The Appalachian Trail crosses its border.

When you build a trail inside of a large bend in a large river about 2 feet above said river's normal waterline... you're going to have problems. And … [Read more...]
Westport’s Town Trails
Westport's Town Trails The Gold Coast. Paul Newman's hometown. Money. Lots and lots of money. And trails? Sure, why not. The Aspetuck Land Trust maintains the bulk of trails in town, but there are a couple other properties worth exploring as well. Sure, one is at the private Earthplace museum and the other … [Read more...]
Windham’s Town Trails
Windham's Town Trails If you've found yourself on this page and are wondering, "I wonder if this website has a page for all 169 towns' trails," I'm pleased to tell you that yes... yes it does. This is an amazing website. More amazing is that each towns' listing is probably very accurate. However, every now and then … [Read more...]
MDC Reservoir 6
The MDC is a Criminal Organization MDC Reservoir 6, Bloomfield, Simsbury, & West Hartford August 2020 I must admit... it's sort of weird writing about a place I've been to a million times. But here I am, nearly 14 years after starting this website and after 20 years of living nearby, doing just that. Yes, I just … [Read more...]
