Mount Shaw is a gem on the 52 WAV list as the highest peak in the Ossipee Range at 2,990 ft with incredible views of Lake Winnipesaukee to the south and the Sandwich Range to the north! This region is scheduled to be in or near peak foliage so be ready to take some great photos during our 7.7-mile loop in the woods maintained by the Lakes Region Conservation Trust. We will summit Mt. Shaw directly and descend over Black Snout and Tate Mountain, gaining 2,450' of elevation. The Shaw summit is shared by snowmobiles in the winter and therefore widely accessible.
Bob is a long time hiker, recently completed his 48, and is currently working on his Winter 48 and 52 WAV lists. When he's not on the trails, you might find him running, paddling his kayak, or trying to keep up with his wife and son on his mountain bike.

Join us for a sunset hike up and down Mt Wachusett (2,005') - an approximate 4-Mile roundtrip with 800 ft of elevation gain. We will start one hour before sunset. If we are fortunate enough to have a clear evening, we will be treated to a magnificent sunset. Please bring a backpack with extra layers, rain jacket, water, headlamp, snacks, face mask, hand sanitizer and trekking poles if you use them. Prior to the hike, the leader will send all confirmed participants detailed information on meeting location, meet up time and planned trails.

Join us for a beginner, relaxed pace hike in the Blue Hills to start your day. We will hike the rolling hills and simply enjoy being in nature with like-minded outdoor enthusiasts. There may be 1 or 2 climbs up some steep, rocky hills, at a slow side of moderate pace, to catch some scenic views. Plan to start at 9:30am and hike approximately 4+ miles. This is a great way to get outside locally, reinforce your hiking skills, and meet new people.
Online registration is required and limited to 10 participants, including leader(s).
