SLT: Tanager Hill

Blazes Appropriately Scarlet Simsbury Land Trust's Tanager Hill Property, Simsbury April 2020 Imagine Connecticut without the Metacomet Ridge that rises right up like a reptilian spine through the middle of the state.

WLT: Hawk Hill Farm

Hawk the Herald Angels Sing Hawk Hill Farm, ~1 mile, Wintonbury Land Trust, Bloomfield April 2020 I just love the fact that there are so many Bloomfield hikes.

Filley Park

I've Had My Fill Filley Park, Bloomfield April 2015 & August 2019 2019 Update at bottom! People probably incorrectly think there aren’t good areas to hike within the town of Bloomfield. They often don’t realize that a good chunk of the Metacomet Ridge is within the town’s western border. And yet, today, I’m … [Read more...]
