HIKE REPORT
Wednesday, 2 April 2025, Farrar Pond early spring hike
Hike Leader: Marie Keutmann
~4 miles, 10:00 am start from Wayland, MA
Hikers (18): Marie, Annemarie Altman, Barbara Jacobs, Barbara Pike, Betty Salzberg, Don Mannes, Eileen Maloney, Judy Gertler, Judy Perrin, Karen Brody, Kristina Leclaire, Lynell Stromberg, Phyllis Evan, Richard Vignoni, Susan Sabin, Ted Nyder, William Feiring, and Zach Woods.
Description: The weather was sunny and cool and, while we started in Wayland, almost all of the hike was in Lincoln. We walked along Farrar Pond with lots of ups and downs and great views of the pond, including a view of a swan nesting on a small island with her male partner guarding against intruders. We crossed a boardwalk over a lovely swamp caused by beavers.
After the hike, about half of the group had lunch in the greenhouse at Verrill Farm in Concord.
