In December, Kelly Nevin organized our Fall Pack Hike in Cadwell Memorial Forest, owned by the School of Natural Resources and the Environment of the University of Massachusetts Amherst. It has nice rolling trails and lots of experimental forestry plots with tagged trees and a ton of bug traps out this year, not to mention the occasional moose. We had a great time as always, but it was a bit chilly as the temperature hovered around 20 degrees. The dogs didn’t seem to mind, but some of us did not like the wind on Saturday. As always SCONE is one intrepid group of hikers.
