Adventure LV

Date of Adventure: 6 July 2009

Type of Adventure: Hike

Place of Adventure: Pine Hill Park

Length of Adventure, miles: 3

Length of Adventure, hours: 1.25

Companion(s): Colyn

Weather: Perfect! Sunny, temps in 70's, dry trail

Other Adventurers Encountered: One large group of hikers, one large group of trail volunteers

Notes of Interest: 1. Interesting Letter to the Editor in today's Rutland Herald regarding the road maintenance and logging. I haven't noticed any logging or disruption. The road looks better, but the trees certainly don't look destroyed, nor do the trails. 2. There is a new trail map for the park. I like that the new map has mileage, but I'm disappointed that it no longer has the topo markings. 3. Due to limited time we hiked a short loop today: Upper Giorgetti, Trillium, Birches, Vista, Upper Ledges, Salamander, 999, Rocky Pond, Underdog, Pond Rd, Vista, Scramble, Backstairs, Upper Giorgetti. 4. Colyn behaved excellently with the groups of people, and even managed to behave well enough in the face of an off leash dog.
