We are inviting our Green Mountain Club friends to hike the Bristol Trail Network on two occasions in the coming week, and we are happy to have any BTN members or other local residents come along if you'd like. But note that each event is limited to 6 participants and pre-registration (with Green Mountain Club, not with me) is required:
Saturday, October 17, 9:30 start
and
Wednesday, October 21, 9:30 start
We will hike all the village segments of the BTN.
Limited to 6 participants who must pre-register. Masks are required. Boots and poles suggested. Plan 1.5-2 hours for the almost 3 mile section around Bristol's historic areas. Total elevation gain is under 100 feet. Added bonus is the really fabulous art exhibit of ephemeral land-based art pieces created by Mt Abe 7th graders.
All participants must register with the trip leader in advance, acknowledging that they have read, understood, and agree to follow the new GMC outings guidelines
https://www.greenmountainclub.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/GMC-Participant-Guidelines-For-[...]pdf, and must provide their phone number and email in case of a later need for contact tracing.
Pre-register by 10/15 by contacting Ruth Penfield, ruthpenfield@gmail.com, 860-214-4180.
Of course, you are always welcome to head out any time to check out the trail on your own. You can download a map at
