Metacomet Trail
Sections 1 & 2
04/03/2011
It was good to really get back into the swing of things with this hike. While still a little on the chilly side the weather here in CT in improving and we should be able to get back into the routine of checking off a section of trail at least once a week. It felt good to clean the stale winter air out of our lungs two weeks ago with a nice, long, hike along the Mattabesett. A really long hike this week felt like just the right kick in the butt to start the year with.
Here are the pictures from our adventure:
For me this hike marked a milestone. The longest hike I’ve done along terrain of this level of difficulty. If you know the place from which I started this adventure you realize how important a milestone this is for me. I’ve never been a person who is very athletic, or who is fit. My goal is to not only change that but to become very fit and to someday thru-hike the Appalachian Trail. I am in the process of working on a progress report entry for this blog to talk about this subject more in detail. Look for it in the near future. 🙂
Until next time.
Happy Trails!
