Upcoming Events: 

June 5th,2010 : Connecticut Trails Day Hike - Always the first Saturday in June, rain or shine, June 5th is CT Trails Day, a statewide event featuring hundreds of hikes.  This year the Watertown Land Trust is teaming up with Morris Land Trust for a point-to-point three mile hike on the blue-blazed Mattatuck Trail, beginning in Watertown and ending in Morris. 
We'll meet at 9am by the gate at the end of Gilbert Road (first left turn off Bassett Rd if you come in from Route 63 (Litchfield Rd).  The Waterbury Water Company has agreed to open the gate for us.  We'll hike through an evergreen and hardwood forest, cross Route 109, and end up at Slab Meadow Rd near Pitch Reservoir.  Well-behaved dogs welcome.  Wear sturdy shoes and bring water.  Come 15 minutes early and help us spot cars.
