Snowshoe Trek in Hillsborough

March 2, 2013 – On Saturday March 2nd a group of over 25 friends of Five Rivers Conservation Trust and neighbors of Hope Thomas enjoyed an afternoon of snow shoeing and good company in Hillsborough Center.

The trip started at Hope’s property which was recently conserved by her donation of a conservation easement on 113 acres to Five Rivers.

We then travelled through hardwood and softwood forests to the secluded Andrews Meadow. Andrews Meadow is over 20 acres in size and is now nearly completely conserved by a combination of Hope’s easement and the Society for the Protection of NH Forests. Once crossing the frozen pond we trekked through the woods to Melinda Gerhis and Richard Head’s home for refreshments and good cheer.

A good time was had by all.
