"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Hiked this since I was little...The date I climbed this was my last hike here, and it was a beautiful, cool day. Hiked the easier trails when I was little, then the longer ones (Blue I think?) several times. It's a good training place, a great place for trail running. The views of downtown Boston on a clear day are very unique.

Red to Blue to Green TrailsHiked with Flanders to end our 2006 annual trip. Nice training place. Bouldered up the big boulder in the middle. Fun. Nice views of downtown Boston. Back in time to watch opening day of football season at his house while eating pizza.

Route Climbed: Several Date Climbed: Late 90sThis was the hill in my backyard for a few years. Best during the winter. Worst when my mountain bike chain broke and I had to repair it while being eaten by mosquitoes.
