That's all folks!

These trip reports are close to 10 years old and with so many newer and better resources available, I've decided to let HockeyPuck's Hiking move to the cached servers of the internet archives.

I'd like to thank everyone for reading my trip reports and sharing your constructive feedback and positive comments.

See you on the trails and enjoy the next adventure, wherever it takes you.

Meetinghouse Hill - 675 Ft

STATE: New Hampshire
DESTINATION: Meetinghouse Hill
ELEVATION: 675 Ft
TRAIL: Cemetery
DISTANCE: 50 Ft
SEASON: Spring
DATE: May 16, 2013
WEATHER: 70 Degrees, Partly cloudy

PARKING: from Rt. 43 turn onto Mt. Delight Rd. Pull off the road near the cemetery gate.



MAP: (Meetinghouse Hill)


DESCRIPTION: From parking enter the cemetery then ascend to the high point.  There are no official markings at the summit. I found the highest point at the Ambrose family monument.

NOTES / COMMENTS: Meetinghouse Hill cemetery is the burial spot for Major John Simpson a Revolutionary War Soldier credited with firing the first shot at the Battle of Bunker Hill (He must have good eyes).

In the photo above closely examine the granite footer below the gate. The words ELEV. 620 FT. are chiseled into the granite.
 
This isn't the highest point however a interesting marking and great reference for the actual highpoint not far away.
