Join our Rabbi for a moderately paced, moderately strenuous hike, a little Torah, and good company. Registration required. More information upon registration.

Weds., May 29 - Azaleas, Pittsfield State Forest

Moderate, 5-6 miles, 935-1100’, 2.5-3 hours

Depending on trail conditions and group interests, we’ll choose a path up the mountain that visits highlights of Pittsfield State Forest - possibly including a climb up Pine Mountain, Tilden Swamp, Berry Pond, and/or the Lulu Brook Cascade - but definitely taking in the seasonal treasure - the summit grove of wild azaleas. We saw them in full bloom last year - we’ll see how it goes this time! Be prepared for muddy trail conditions and a steep section. Leashed dogs are welcome. 

Rain date - Weds, June 5

Meet at KI to carpool at 9 a.m. or at the Lulu Brook parking area in Pittsfield State Forest by 9:10 a.m. ($5 parking fee)
