Biking the Northern Rail Trail, Lebanon to Concord NH

10/26/2013

Over the course of this and last summer, I have been biking the Northern Rail Trail, which runs from Lebanon NH across Grafton and Merrimack Counties to just north of Concord NH.  The latest section opened this summer in Boscawen, extending the route by 4 more miles, and almost reaching to Concord's northern city limit.  As we are forming a group of hiking and biking trail enthusiasts at work, I noticed that our map data did not include this latest section.

I raced out early one Friday, hoping to bike and GPS the new section before the sunset took away the light and warmth.  The rail bed had been graded and covered with a layer of stone dust, making for a nice soft riding surface.  I made it to the end, captured some photos, and then made it back to my car before lights were needed to see the way.

The previous weekend, I revisited the peak section of the rail trail:  Orange Heights.  986 feet above sea level, the trail passes over the divide between the Connecticut and Merrimack river drainage systems.

    My interests and activities have expanded during 2013, to include participating in the "Vermont Atlas of Life" project on iNaturalist.org, and a new cycling & hiking group which is forming at TomTom.  These new activities give me more things to experience while enjoying the outdoors.  I'll share some of the more interesting ones here.
