Good views, great company, and post-hike ice cream, it doesn’t get much better than that! 🍦🥾✨

Yesterday’s 20s & 30s group AMC Boston 20’s & 30’s spent the day out on the Bay Circuit Trail at Dow Brook Conservation Area in Ipswich Open Space exploring vernal pools and beautiful wooded wetlands before wrapping up at White Farms Ice Cream! 🌿🍨 (So sad a foot injury kept me home, but so glad it was such a great outing!)

Huge thank you to every single person who showed up, and massive gratitude to Chao and JT for jumping in at the last minute to lead the way. You two rock! 🙌🎉

Trail morning well spent! 🌲🔨 Last week, volunteers gathered at Hammond Reservation in Andover to give some love to a key stretch of the Bay Circuit Trail! 💚

Swipe through to see the before & after transformation! ➡️

A massive thank you to everyone who came out and put in work, including awesome crews from the Mystic Link Trail and AVIS Andover . Special shoutout to Mr. Alan French, the grandfather of the Bay Circuit Trail, for coming out to support! Make sure to swipe to the end to see him taking a well-earned rest on Mary French’s bench. 💕

That bench sits right at the entrance to the Mary French Reservation, where a brand-new boardwalk has been under construction and will be wrapping up soon! 🪵✨

Trails like this don’t maintain themselves, and this community showed up in a big way. See you out on the trail! 👋

Newburyport, MA holds a special place in our hearts since it’s the northern terminus of the Bay Circuit Trail! 🗺️ It was the absolute best time getting to chat with you all, share about the trail, and talk about our upcoming guided hiking & biking events.

Did you know the BCT is one of the long-distance trails stewarded by the Appalachian Mountain Club ? 💚 Love getting to help folks learn how to get involved and explore.

Huge thanks to everyone who stopped by the table to grab some swag and say hi! Drop a comment if you’re planning to jump on the trail soon! 👇🥾🚲
