Squam wasn’t built in a day—but how long did it take? Join Lakes Region Conservation Corps members Peter and Henry for a hike through the history of the Squam Lakes, from the origins of its bedrock hundreds of millions of years ago to the relatively recent glaciations that formed the lakes, and learn how the land still exhibits evidence of its complex geological past. We’ll identify some features you might have missed along the SLA’s most popular trails, and enjoy a long walk/hike in the woods. Appropriate hiking attire is recommended, including sturdy boots or shoes and suitable clothing, as well as plenty of water and any snacks you would like. Geology enthusiasts of all ages are welcome, although children must be accompanied by an adult, and prepared to walk about three miles. A brief section of the trail is fairly steep and eroded, which while geologically interesting, may pose an issue for people with limited mobility.
