A hilly hike in Wilcox Park (45 min?)
No ink pad in box, bring a rabbit color.
Directions: Route 189 (north or south) take the Tariffville exit to St. Andrews cemetery, go left on Hoskins Road for just under a mile. Parking lot is at the silver gate just before the park sign (which you can only see the back of).
Address of park is officially 71 Hoskins Road, Bloomfield.

To find WW (the Wilcox Wabbit) walk up the paved path towards the yellow house. Go straight past the house, through the chain gate, straight past picnic tables and with the challenge course on your left, enter the woods straight ahead near a large downed tree, watching for yellow blazes. At an upside down Y (just before the large layered rock 50 feet off trail) take a right onto a red trail, going downhill for a long time (you might see green blazes with the red for awhile)when the trail levels off, cross a stream and look right to a good sized rock outcropping. Bushwhack to the S.E. end, find four boulders and facing east choose boulder #2.

After rehiding, take a deep breath and trudge back UP the hill you came down. My map says that this trail goes up to the Metacomet but the map lied. Retracing your steps is the best way out.
