Mount Flagg: Back to Camp I have hiked this mountain every single summer since I was 7, but these hiking trips stopped due to COVID. Mount Flagg was the last of my cabin hikes that I needed to complete. If you have been following my journey, then you know that I have been trying to…

Blue Hills Reservation: The Importance of Flexible Plans The day we hiked Blue Hills Reservation was so hot and humid that when I first stepped outside, it was even difficult to breathe. The temperature was in the mid-90s and the humidity felt similar to that of the Everglades in Florida. I was already considerably more…
