History Hike of Highland Park

Meet at the Land Trust boulder at the small parking lot on Spring Street near the bridge and waterfall, not far from the intersection of Spring Street and Glen Road, Manchester (GPS 670 Spring St.). We'll start with commentary on the Case Brothers National Historic District and then visit the paper mill and mansion areas. Those who want a short history walk may end their walk at the dam at Case Pond near Spring Street. We will visit Upper Case Pond, our 7.6-acre property, along with a visit to the 1917 cabin; and for those who want a more strenuous event, we will continue uphill to the summit of Lookout Mountain. Steep, bumpy, and rocky terrain, but worth the effort, especially on a clear day, when the Heublein Tower is visible to the west. Free. Please wear sturdy sneakers or hiking boots, and bring water. Geologist Kira EatonNo will comment on the rock formations. No dogs, please. Extreme weather cancels. Please check the street signs carefully before parking to avoid parking tickets.
