HOLDERNESS — Join the SLA for the Squam Range Hiking Series, Mt. Squam and Mt. Doublehead, on Wednesday, Nov. 16, from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
Throughout the month participants will hike all seven of the peaks along the Squam Range. This is a wonderful opportunity to check off trails listed on the Squam Ranger list or to learn about the Squam Rangers program. You do not need to be a Squam Ranger to join this hike.
Squam Rangers are a dedicated group of hikers who have conquered 50+ miles of trails in the Squam Watershed. Proceeds from this program support the SLA's annual trail maintenance efforts.
This 5.2 mile out and back hike begins along an old road and crosses an old log yard and skidder road. After crossing several wet areas, the trail gets steep, crosses a stone wall and enters a mature forest. Atop the cliffs participants will enjoy wonderful views of Squam and Sandwich before hiking along the Crawford Ridgepole trail to Mt. Squam, which will offer more views of Squam and granite slabs, and a pine forest.Â
