To Breakneck Pond and Back Saturday – June 18, 2022

If the timing is right, we should still be encountering on this hike a good deal of blooming Mountain Laurel. The hike will start from the Boat Launch/Fishermen’s Parking Area on Lake Sebago. Following a woods road (also used as a ski trail), we will turn off to follow a cairn-marked trail up the hill and then intersect with the Buck Trail. We will follow the Buck Trail until we come out at a fire road, then turn onto an unmarked trail and finally approach Breakneck Pond where we will have lunch. We can look at the AMC Harriman Camp and will return by a different trail. Bring lunch, rain gear, and appropriate hiking shoes. Why not plan on signing up for the hosted weekend, too! We can relax after the hike and enjoy a fine, relaxing Saturday dinner.

Meet at the Lake Sebago Boat Launch parking area by 9:30AM. Qualifying (about 6 miles). Leader: Ray Kozma. Contact at: raymondkozma@gmail.com or 917-406-3782.
