Autumn Fields of North Fyreburg, 10:00 am

Thursday, November 10th, 2016

Looks like a sunny day this Thursday with high temps in the upper 40's. Not bad for November!! A casual ride in the fields of North Fryeburg in the sunshine should be good!

Start 10:00 am, ready to ride, next to the North Fryeburg Fire Station at the corner of Route 113 and South Chatham Road.  The ride will check out the autumn status of the cornfields and turf farms, the horses, sheep, cows and chickens, the winterberries in the wetlands and the nice views of the mountains.  The route heads to MacNeil via Harbor, then Fish to Rt 5 to Cornshop, then back to Fish via 113, and MacNeil, then Union Hill, Meadow, the Stow Store. 

Basic ride to Stow Store: 23 miles. Add the Chatham Loop: 30 miles total. 


How about a hike on Monday, Nov 14th? 
Come celebrate the ribbon cutting of the new xc ski trails at Jackson Ski Touring at 10:00 am, Rocky Branch Parking Lot off of Route 16, just north of the old Dana Place Inn. Afterwards walk with me from the Rocky Branch all the way back to Jackson via old and new trails (new Kellogg, Hall, new Hall-Maple Connector, new Keeney Trail, then back from Grey's Field via Ellis) for a 9 mile walk. There will be muddy areas, the footing is good except for some rocky spots on the North Hall). Bring hiking boots, lunch and water. 
Meet me at the parking area across the street from the J-Town Deli in Jackson Village at 9:40 for carpooling/car shuttle.
