Cockaponset State Forest Intro

Cockaponset State Forest Haddam, Chester, Deep River, Killingworth, Durham, Guilford, Madison, Clinton, Westbrook, Middletown & Middlefield I listed all the towns above not because there are worth CTMQ things do within the Cockaponset in each, but just to make the point that this is a disjointed and sprawling … [Read more...]

364. Chatfield Hollow Nature Center

An Open Window Into Local Wildlife Killingworth (Google Maps location) July 22, 2017 I have a weird feeling about Killingworth. And it’s not just because it’s named Killingworth. As of this writing, I have six museums listed for the town: Black Rock Schoolhouse Chatfield Hollow SP Nature … [Read more...]

CTMQ’s Guide to Killingworth

Everything Killingworth I’ve been exploring and writing about Connecticut since 2006. After a decade, I began compiling CTMQ guides for each town in the state.

Killingworth’s Town Trails

Killingworth’s Town Trails What’s a killing worth? A lot to a bounty hunter assassin I suppose. But here in Connecticut, a Killingworth is a town not quite on the coast, not quite on the river, not quite in the hills. But it does have a lot of woods and that means it has trails. The Killingworth Land … [Read more...]

Killingworth Land Conservation Trust Trails Intro

Killingworth Land Conservation Trust Killingworth is known to me as “the town I cut through to get to Madison.” Of course, Connecticut is often derided as the state one must cut through to get to New York or Boston. And that annoys me, so apologies to the fine folks of Killingworth. On those cut-throughs, I … [Read more...]

TSTL’17.11: Chatfield Hollow State Park

The Sky's the Limit 2017 Hiking Challenge #11 Chatfield Hollow State Park, Killingworth July 22, 2017 This Challenge point represented an all-new state park for me! That’s right, even though Chatfield Hollow contains a little nature center museum, “caves,” a covered bridge, a swimming pond, and a CFPA trail … [Read more...]

SCCRWA Trails Intro

SCCRWA, OMG STFU, SRSLY? South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority Trails This page exists because years and years ago I thought that the South Central Regional Council of Governments trail listing was unique in and of itself. It included the RWA trails. I've since grown wiser and realized that the bulk of … [Read more...]
