Dear ECTA Supporters,Hard to believe that just a month ago we were hiking on the trails through Appleton Farms! If you were hoping to ski or snowshoe this winter, looks like you are in luck… and just in time for February vacation week! As you head out to enjoy our winter wonderland, keep in these Winter Trail Tips in mind to keep you safe while you’re out on your adventures.
When all this snow is gone, we have a great line up of spring events planned for you! The Equine Expo celebrates its 20th year on Saturday, April 25th with a plethora of new and used goods and live demonstrations throughout the day. Our Spring for the Trails Half Marathon debuts on Sunday, May 3rd at Willowdale State Forest. And don’t forget about our 5th Annual ECTAthlon held in celebration of National Trails Day on Saturday, June 6th – get your teams together now!
Snowshoe With Us this Sunday
Snow, the final frontier. These are the adventures of the Essex County Trail Association – to explore snow covered trails, to seek out winter fun and to boldy go where we hope many more will follow! Join Trail Steward Joshua Regula as we forge through the snow and explore the trails at Willowdale State Forest and the Dow Brook and Bull Brook Conservation Areas.
