Overview

Join us for the 19th year of this popular series. We hike at a moderate pace for 2 to 3 hours in The Blue Hills Reservation every Thursday evening. This is a great way to end your day; get outside; strengthen your hiking legs; and socialize with a nice group of people. We do ask that you make a commitment to join this series by attending as often as you are able, understanding that we all will be away some weeks throughout the series. This is a 'trail trace' series, meaning that we hike every foot of every trail in the chosen section of the Blue Hills each week. Appropriate hiking clothes and a small backpack are required. Hiking shoes or other functional footwear are required (no work shoes or gym shoes.) We hike until sunset so you must bring a headlamp in case we end up hiking out after dark. As this is a series, new participants will be screened for their initial hike and will not be 'rescreened' subsequently. Elevation and mileage will change each week so you need to be prepared for changing conditions with some hikes more strenuous than others. Register once for the series and you will get a weekly email with the location where we will meet. As this series is "Show and Go", you will be required to sign an AMC waiver at the trailhead at the beginning of each hike.
