Overview

Join us for a backpack on the Long Trail in the Green Mountains of VT. Running from MA to Canada, the Long Trail is the oldest long distance hiking trail in the US, built between 1910-1930 by the Green Mountain Club. We will hike Division #3, which also coincides with the Appalachian Trail. This hike will be 23 miles in distance, with many ups & downs in elevation, as we summit Bromley Mountain (elev. 3120') & Stratton Mountain (3940', our highest point), with a low elevation of 1800'. With good conditions, we will have views of the Taconics, Mt. Monadnock & Killington. We will stay @ the Bromley Shelter and the Stratton Pond Campsite. Participants must be able to hike an average of 8 miles/ day with a full pack. Prior backpacking experience is required & attendance at an AMC backpacking workshop is preferred. Participants will need to have required equipment, including tent, sleeping bag, stove, and water treatment, as well as clothing appropriate for variable weather conditions. A full gear list will be provided to registered participants.
