Ossipee Pine Barrens Preserve Hike

Mature pitch pines, moose and deer tracks, first warm & summny spring day, no black flies, great view of Ossipee lake.

Please join me for this early spring 4-5 mile hike in an area the Nature Conservancy describes as "New Hampshire’s last intact example of a pitch pine/scrub oak woodland, a globally rare forest type, one of the state’s most endangered landscapes."  We'll explore some of the pine barren lansdscape and then hike into hilly terrain owned by Camp Calumet where we'll end up at a beautiful viewpoint overlooking Ossipee Lake for lunch.  Should be back to the parking area by 3PMish.
