Friday Working Hike @ Long Pond Trail

CHAMPLAIN AREA TRAILS has A Friday WORKING HIKE on THE long pond trail ON december 13th AT 9 AM.

Enjoy this 4.5-mile loop trail near Willsboro, New York. Generally considered an easy route, we will walk the trail over 4 hours as we lop and clean up along the way. There are a couple of loops, making it not strictly an out-and-back hike. The trail reaches the pond at 1.3 miles and then follows the shoreline for more than a half mile with views along the way.

WHAT TO BRING: We will work with loppers, hand saws, and string trimmers, which Champlain Area Trails can provide. Feel free to bring your tools as well.  Make sure to bring gloves, protective eye gear (if using a string trimmer), water, and some snacks! Dress in good layers for winter hiking.  

DIRECTIONS: The trailhead is reached by turning off Route 22 on Carver Road, five miles north of Willsboro or three miles south of the Northway’s Willsboro exit. The parking lot is not quite a mile up Carver, on the right and is identifiable by a small lot with a kiosk. Click here for Google Maps directions.

REGISTRATION: Please register by 6:00 p.m. the day before the event by emailing tony@champlainareatrails.com, but it's also okay to meet us there Friday at 9:00 a.m.
