This hike on Forest Exploration and Co-op Trails will be a timeline of these women's daily lives and their contributions to the greater Commonwealth. This hike will be roughly two miles long with mixed terrain from hard-packed earth with roots to wide gravel paths. Please wear sturdy shoes and dress for the weather.
