Wuzzam, the Old Goat, and Hill-Billiage joined me for a Tour de Burlington along branches of the Tunxis Trail. It ends up being a modified Tunxis Ultra Loop, with the two "out-and-backs" removed. The wayz we do it, flowz better in a great big circle.
It was hard to figure what the distance would be, especially with removing a couple parts, but I got 17.5-miles on my gps. We finished total time of 4:58 or so.
Great weather (dry, somewhat sunny, and 43-degrees). Leaves were not too bad for the most part due to the heavy Mtn Bike usage on many of these trails. The "High-Lights" were as follows:
- The Wall
- Hemenway Lookout
- Mile of Ledges
- Bear's Den
- The Tory Cave
- State Trout Hatchery
- Devils Kitchen
Definitely a run I would like to do again. Two water drops worked out just fine.
I have a series of photographs of some of the scrambling we did, mostly of Wuzzam, which I will post going forward over time.
