Walk Wednesday with Wendy and Cam: Saunders Preserve, East Haddam

Saunders Preserve lies directly atop the Honey Hill Fault and the fault’s associated rock outcroppings. The geology at Saunders is amazing, with likely Native American stoneworks. The walk is moderate with some inclines. Two miles.

Wendy Hill, Open Space Coordinator of Lyme and Lyme Land Trust Vice President will lead the walks with host Cameron Beard of the East Haddam Land Trust. The walks are moderate along dirt paths with some uneven footing and slight inclines, unless noted. About 2-3 miles. Walks match the group’s pace and distance is estimated. Bring water and dress appropriately; hikes are cancelled if weather is bad.
