Hiking Spots[views:4759][posts:15]__________________________________ [Apr 24,2013 3:27pm - chrisREX ""] Looking for a good day hike spot around Boston, no more than two hour drive. Not Monadnock, or Purgatory Chasm. Any recommendations? |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 24,2013 4:23pm - Czarnobog ""] just hiked around World's End in Hull the other day. pretty low-key, nothing too heavy duty. its mostly old carriage paths. but cool as hell and right on Quincy Bay. its like 2 miles from Nantasket Beach. |
| ______________________________ [Apr 24,2013 5:25pm - Yeti ""] Douglas State Forest is backed. the hike to the tri-state marker is long but not too difficult. there are some old farm ruins too, which are pretty cool. |

| ____________________________________ [Apr 24,2013 5:46pm - arilliusbm ""] Nope. But it doesn't stop me. I've got really good hiking boots now and if need be, can wear a brace. Got to go to the doctor though, but fuck off nowadays doctors. |

I've got really good hiking boots now and if need be, can wear a brace. Got to go to the doctor though, but fuck off nowadays doctors. Fucked up ankles suck. I broke my left ankle trying to land an ollie off a 3ft launch ramp 25 years ago and that fucking thing still rolls on my to this day. I made it through last hunting season with a brace, but I think I'm going to have to retire the Muck Boots and go to an Irish Setter or something with more support. |

| __________________________________ [Apr 25,2013 3:19pm - chrisREX ""] I grew up near Douglas but I have never been to that park. Drove through it once at night and it was spooky. I was totally ready for a yeti attack. I was looking at the ipswich river wildlife sanctuary, that place looks nice. Anyone been there? |
