This group was founded for those of us aged 50-70+ who want easier hikes at a slower pace. Most hikes are in the White Mountain National Forest,within 45 minutes of Interstate 93.  Our goal is to hike all 4 seasons of the year, weather permitting, in the safety and comraderie of the group.

Hikes are for those in condition who want to meet like minded walkers. Walks/hikes last no more than 3 hours, some as short as an hour. DOGS ARE WELCOME.

Some hiking areas require the dog be leashed: Places like Ravenswood (Gloucester), Harold Parker (Andover), Meadowbrook and/or Winnekenni (Haverhill), Salisbury/Newburyport Rail Trail are just a few examples of areas. While we want to socialize, the walks are not slow paced. You should ha …

I want to try an experiment. Imagine a typical weekday after a long day at work. You finally get home, collapse onto the couch, click on the television…and then you remember—you have a petting zoo meetup to go to in 45 minutes. Problem is you don’t want to go to the petting zoo. Sure, it seemed like it’d be a hoot when you signed up for it eight weeks ago, but dammit your feet are tired, and you just want to relax, and besides—the new episode of Space Commandos is on tonight. So regretfully you …
