Winter Hike from Nobscot Scout Reservation - January 18 2022

 HIKE REPORT


Wednesday, 18 January 2022, Winter Hike from Nobscot Scout Reservation

Hike Leaders:  Tony & Margie Lee

5.9 miles (~3 hours), 10:00 am start from Sudbury, MA


Hikers (13): Margie, Tony, Annemarie Altman, Betty Salzberg, George Stromberg, Jeff Wallen, Joanne Samuels, Marie Keutmann, Mel Prenovitz, Molly Schaeffer, Rick Carlson, Susan Broome, and first-timer Lynell Stromberg.

Present at lunch:  Rachel Carlson.


The day dawned with some rain in the forecast, but the leaders decided to go ahead with the hike. Thirteen hikers met at Nobscot under somewhat cloudy skies.  We followed Thirty Rod Trail to Tipling Rock Trail, then scrambled up Tipling Rock, taking in views of Boston, the Blue Hills, and the Needham towers.


I counted about ten raindrops on our way to Ford’s Folly, but then the skies brightened and the sun eventually appeared.  We enjoyed stretching our legs and some outdoors socializing.  Five hikers were joined by Rachel Carlson for a delicious fireside lunch at the Wayside Inn.
