The trip report

 I would like to thank David and Mike for leading a great hike.  We started on time and the hike was well attended. The 'meet and greet' for the dogs went well. They all got along wonderfully.  

The hike began with a steep climb. It was a great way to get the blood going! As we made our way along the trail, we were treated with the sights and sounds of bubbling streams and shimmering ponds. The beginnings of the Fall colors provided constant bits of beauty as we wound our way throught the forest.

It was a wonderful hike filled with great people!!

Should be fun, not too strenuous, and good food at the finish line.
Camp over if you like.

I have been looking at maps and trying to see what the miles would be for this hike. I am thinking that it is between 5 and 6 mile hike.... some steep hills and a lot just like a walk in the woods. The hardest is the first part of the hike, up to the top of Mt. Wantastiquet
