| Planning the trail |
The forecast was for clouds and rain but warm temperatures, so why not go for a hike. I have been looking forward to the first hike of the year for Papa Joe’s “Winter” hiking group.
The first hike was at the Hop Brook Conservation Area. Straddling the border of Sudbury and Marlborough, this 615 acre track of public and private land includes the Hop Brook Conservation Area, the Memorial Forest and Wildlife Sanctuary, the Marlborough State Forest, and other conservation land owned by Sudbury and Marlborough.

| Heading out |
Bill was at my house at 7:30 for the drive to the trailhead at 347 Dutton Road in Sudbury. We had 11 hikers for this 5-mile loop. It rained on and off throughout the hike, and we were constantly avoiding flooded trails, but it is a great area with gentle terrain and lots of features. We stopped for brunch at the Sunnyside Café in Marlborough.
