Summary

Join GayOutdoors for their Get Fit as it heads out to Leominster State Forest.  We will be doing the Rocky Pond and Brook Road Loop.  Some trails included on this trip are Hell’s Highway and King Tut’s Highway—who would want to miss that?!  This hike is 7.4 miles with 685’ of elevation gain.  We will meet at 9 am, and it should take us about 3 hours to complete.   We will meet at the Rocky Pond Trailhead on Route 31, south of Crow Hill Beach Parking.  Trekking poles are recommended, and be prepared for mud.  Bring lunch with you, and we’ll find a cozy spot to eat towards the end.  I hope you can join us!
