Chester Land Trust Oh, Chester. Everyone loves Chester. Not quite Essex, but not Deep River either. Chester is lovely. Randomly, my father grew up in Chester, Pennsylvania which is just south of Philadelphia. His family was part of the white flight in the 1950's and while Pennsylvania's Chester is now home to an MLS … [Read more...]

Southington Land Conservation Trust
Southington Land Conservation Trust Queen Street. I-84. I-84. Queen Street. I know some Southington residents who are pretty darn happy with their town, and probably don't want outsiders like me urging people to check out the town beyond the major thoroughfares. Well, tough. The town owns and maintains a … [Read more...]
Woodsmen Land Trust
Woodsmen Land Trust East Lyme & Montville This entity has me confused. They've existed for quite some time (since 2011) and... haven't really done all that much. To clarify - they may have been doing a ton of conservation work and stuff I don't know about. What I mean is, they hadn't done anything I'd be interested … [Read more...]
East Lyme Land Trust
East Lyme Land Trust There is a lot packed in to little East Lyme. And I'm not just talking about ticks either. I'm talking about trails. Lots of trails. And lots of entities that maintain those trails. The East Lyme Land Trust is but one. I kind of like the excitement of hiking trails on property owned by … [Read more...]
GNH: Long Wharf Nature Preserve
Gather 'Round Kids Gather New Haven's Long Wharf Nature Preserve June 2019 For those of you that read all my hiking pages, I'm about to sound like a broken record: I love urban trails. Yes, of course, there really no better way to spend a crisp autumn day in Connecticut than traipsing up and down mountains in … [Read more...]
Milford Land Conservation Trust
Milford Land Conservation Trust Milford Another tough one. The Milford Land Conservation Trust has done a great job securing parcels of land all over town. And when it comes to Milford, a lot of that land is marshland. Unhikeable and mostly unkayakable. So cross them off the list. Then most of their other … [Read more...]
Branford Land Trust Trails
Branford's Town & Land Trust Trails Oh man. There are only a few towns that leave me no choice but to combine different entities' trailed properties into one list. As you've guessed by now, Branford is one. And while this gives my list-OCD fits, this is a very good thing. Very good in that it's nice to see … [Read more...]

Salisbury Association Land Trust
Salisbury Association Land Trust Salisbury I'll admit it. I've created over 100 of these land trust trails pages and this one has me slightly defeated. Perhaps I'm a bit fatigued... nah. It's just that some of these entities don't have the resources to create useful websites. So I have to go on a time-consuming … [Read more...]
SLT: Tanager Hill
Blazes Appropriately Scarlet Simsbury Land Trust's Tanager Hill Property, Simsbury April 2020 Imagine Connecticut without the Metacomet Ridge that rises right up like a reptilian spine through the middle of the state. No Sleeping Giant, no Castle Craig, no Heublein Tower... no Talcott Mountain and no Penwood State … [Read more...]
