The seven of us—two Leaders and five Trekkers—awoke in the beautiful state of Vermont for the first time during this trip this morning. After our usual breakfast, we headed out from Button Bay State Park to North Beach Campground in Burlington, VT. We knocked out most of the mileage during the morning, covering over 25 […]
Today on our day off we explored Portland, Maine. After having a breakfast of eggs and toast we began searching for thrift shops recommended by the ladies at our hostel. We explored stores like Urban Outfitters, and Life Is Good. Later we reconvened and went to a tourist store where I got lost. When it […]
Today we went biking. We biked and biked and biked (35 miles). We started in Bronte, where Dylan came to the rescue with After Bite. Then we biked a lot. Then we went onto the Waterfront Trail and continued on that for a while. Then we had Tim’s (two times) and pizza for lunch (Dylan […]
Our morning began as it usually does—rising a little after 7am, getting ready, packing our bikes, and eating breakfast before leaving the campsite at 9am. From there, our morning was unusual because instead of ticking off mileage on our bikes, we sped through the mileage atop a ferry that took us from Lake George to […]
Today we woke up under a pavilion next to Lake Ontario and continued on the trail into Burlington. We stopped for some Tims and feasted on Tim Bits next to the water. After a brief adventure across town to MEC (mountain exchange co-op), we ate lunch at the gorgeous Bronte Beach. We arrived at the […]
Today was another long day of biking. The morning was the same as usual but on our way to Portland, Justin’s tire got sliced. We had to take a detour to the bike shop to get his tire fixed, but after that everything was as smooth as butter. We biked through beautiful towns, farms and […]
We started off the day eating reptiles (dinosaur egg oatmeal) before heading out to the next big town- Hamilton, Ontario. Over hills and through woods we biked, honing our marshmallow catching skills along the way. With Toronto in sight on the other side of Lake Ontario, we dropped down into town, with waterpark slides on […]
Today our group continued their journey north towards Lake George. We started our morning just north of Saratoga Springs at Moreau Lake State Park. Our group biked safely on the road for a bit then after passing through Glens Falls, linked up with a very nice bike trail. The Warren County Bikeway brought us right […]
After another wholesome oatmeal breakfast, we rode up the beautiful New Hampshire coast. We ate lunch in downtown Portsmouth before crossing the bridge and into Maine. New Hampshire went by fast! In Maine we swam in the cold beach before pulling into camp for the night. Excited for Portland tomorrow! Learn more about the Teen […]
Today we biked 36 miles. We had a lot of fun hopping between New Hampshire and Massachusetts. We had fun at the beach. Spencer didn’t want to go into the water but Julian and I convinced him. When we arrived at the campsite, we split into two groups. Sammy, Justin, Keya, and Shelter stayed at […]
