Two Upcoming Events in Bradford, VT



Community Hike and 15-year Anniversary Celebration, Saturday, June 6th, meeting at Wright's MT Trailhead, 9:30 am

Refreshments, Music and Ribbon-Cutting to open a new 1/2 mile trail called "Appreciation Way", dedicated to all the volunteers who have helped build and maintain trails and made this beautiful land more accessible to people of all ages.

"Appreciation Way" meanders away from the main Wright's MT Trail, through an evergreen stand and gradually up though a hardwood forest to a ridgeline plateau that offers distant views of Corinth to the West and NH mountains to the East. It rejoins the Wright's MT Trail for the final ascent to the cabin, which is perched at Bradford's highest point. (Easy to Moderate)

2009 marks the 15th year since Wright's MT was purchased from the Appleton Family and was conserved for the public's use FOREVER.

5th Annual Devil's Den Celebration, Sunday, June 7th, beginning at noon to mark the 5-year anniversary of Devil's Den being conserved.

Cook-out, live music, campfire, stories, guided hikes.

This event will be staged at the Devil's Den parking area on Chase Hollow Road. Parking will be available at a log landing about 1/4 mile from the Devil's Den Trailhead.
