4-mile hike in a 227-acre conservation property that has abandoned cranberry bogs that have become shallow freshwater marshes, a freshwater kettle pond, woodlands, Quashnet River headwaters and a town beach. Terrain is a combination of woodland trails, soft sand, loose gravel, dirt roads, mud puddles. Mostly flat. Gentle hills. A few downed trees to step over, around or thru. Hunting is allowed in all Mashpee conservation areas. No hunting is allowed in MA on Sundays. Cape Hikes has 2 sets of hiking poles and 2 sets of microspikes that can be borrowed. If you would like to borrow either, contact the hike leader before the hike so the leader can arrange to have them available for you to borrow. In support of our conservation mission, please carpool when possible. From time-to-time unplanned events, usually weather, force us to cancel a hike at the last minute. Please check postings on the day of the hike to be sure it is still happening.
