5 miles | 499 ft gain | Difficulty: Easy | Rating ★★ We chose the Raven's Rock via Lucy's Loop and Buttermilk Hill for two reasons: 1 - this was not the weekend to climb a mountain or a hill, or anything that left us high up and exposed and 2 - we wanted distance (7.5 miles) but an easy way to cut it short if we chickened out. Which is exactly what we ended up doing.

Hike 1: Princeton Battlefield State Park
3.0 miles | 79 ft gain | Difficulty: Easy | Rating ★★★ Sometimes a new year means easing back into things. To simplify things, and to be flexible to restrictions Covid may place, I'm defining a 2021 hike as a 3+ mile excursion in the woods. Yes, I am for challenge, but sometimes it's just nice to get outside for a bit.
