Details
Newbury, NH is about 2 hours from Boston (100 miles) so carpooling is strongly recommended.
This will be a moderate hike for about 5 hours. Dress in layers, bring lunch, plenty of water and a wool hat/gloves isn't a bad idea.
Rain will cancel.
About Mount Sunapee: Round trip distance is 7.25 miles with nice views of Lake Sunapee and Vermont mountains.

Carpooling Directions: We will carpool from a Park 'N Ride from I-93, Exit 12 in Bow, NH. Park 'N Ride Info: http://www.nh.gov/dot/nhrideshare/p18.htm. We will meet there for 10:30AM.
Trailhead Directions: The road to the Andrew Brook Trail leaves NH 103 about 1 mile south of Newbury and the southern end of Lake Sunapee. On the USGS map it has the engaging name of Between the Mountains Road. It's commonly called just the Moutain Road. Signs so designate it on both sides of NH 103. The asphalt ribbon winds up the westward 1.2 miles to the start of the Andrew Brook Trail on the right. There's no sign, but you can identify the trail by an opening in the woods just before a bridge over the brook. A wide road shoulder accommodates several cars on the same side as the trail.
