Pre-Thanksgiving Hike at Sleeping Giant - Hamden

This is a B level, 5-mile hike with moderate pace, at 2.0 to 2.5 mph (moderate to fast), with some hills and rocks. We will start by going down to the stream at the left. My cell number is 203-640-4711.

Please bring: Clothing layers (no cotton or jeans), waterproof hiking footwear, backpack, poles, water and snacks, personal first aid and meds, and tick repellent. If we have snow, please have spikes in your bag.

The Sleeping Giant Park Association’s map is better than the state’s, and it’s at https://sgpa.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/2021-TrailMapBrochure.pdf

We do ask for a contribution of $2 per hike or $10 per year to cover meetup.com fees and our annual social events, picnics, parties, etc...
