  • Rattlesnake Mountain Farmington CT
    This Mountain Hike In Connecticut Leads To Something Awesome Looking for a mountain hike in Connecticut that’s truly unique? Then look no further! At the top of this mountain is a hidden site, unknown by many Connecticut residents. But a little piece of folk history is waiting to be rediscovered by you. So let’s get going! Rattlesnake Mountain in Farmington is a 2.3-mile hike off of Route 6. Part of the Metacomet Ridge, this short trail can be a little taxing for beginners, but it's totally worth it! Be prepared to catch some fantastic sights atop this scenic vista as you explore the rare plants and traprock ridges. An increasing number of locals have begun using the ridges here for rock climbing. They may look for intimidating, but they make for great exercise. Not to mention you'd be climbing volcanic rock. At 750 feet high and 500 feet above the Farmington River Valley, there's no shortage of views. But the coolest thing atop this mountain isn't the sight. It's Will Warren's Den! This boulder rock cave is a local historic site that will leave you breathless. Who knew Connecticut had caves quite like this! 1 The plaque affixed to the cave reads "Said Warren, according to legend, after being flogged for not going to church, tried to burn the village of Farmington. He was pursued into the mountains, where some Indian squaws hid him in this cave." It may not look like much from the outside, but the inside is a cool oasis.

    Metacomet Trail - Central CT Metacomet Trail Blue-blazes mark the Metacomet Trail Length 51 mi (82 km) Location Hartford County / New Haven County, Connecticut, USA Designation Part of a National Scenic Trail Use hiking, snowshoeing, other Elevation Highest point West Peak, 1,024 ft (312 m) 1 Lowest point Farmington River, 150 ft (46 m) Hiking details Season easiest spring to fall Hazards deer ticks, poison ivy, copperheads (in places) The Metacomet Trail is a 62.7-mile (100.9 km) Blue-Blazed hiking trail that traverses the Metacomet Ridge of central Connecticut and is a part of the newly designated 'New England National Scenic Trail'. Despite being easily accessible and close to large population centers, the trail is considered remarkably rugged and scenic. The route includes many areas of unique ecologic, historic, and geologic interest. Notable features include waterfalls, dramatic cliff faces, woodlands, swamps, lakes, river flood plain, farmland, significant historic sites, and the summits of Talcott Mountain and the Hanging Hills. The Metacomet Trail is maintained largely through the efforts of the Connecticut Forest and Park Association. On March 30, 2009 President Barack Obama signed the 'Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009' establishing the New England National Scenic Trail (and two other national scenic trails).[3] The combination of the Metacomet, Monadnock and Mattabesett trails is also often referred to as the '3- M', 'MMM' or Metacomet-Monadnock-Mattabesett trail. The New England National Scenic Trail includes all or almost all of the 'MMM' trails as well as the new extension trail from the southernmost point on the Mattabesett Trail through Guilford, Connecticut to the northern shore of Long Island Sound.

    STATE OF CONNECTICUT DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION July 15, 2009 Daniel F. Caruso, Chairman Connecticut Siting Council 10 Franklin Square New Britain, Connecticut 06051 RE: Greater Springfield Reliability Project and Manchester to Meekville Junction Circuit Separation Project Connecticut Light and Power Company Bloomfield, East Granby, Suffield, Enfield and Manchester, Connecticut Docket No. 370 Dear Chairman Caruso: Staff of this department have reviewed the above-referenced application for a Certificate of Environmental Compatibility and Public Need for the proposed 345-kV transmission line from North Bloomfield Substation to the Massachusetts state line at Suffield and have walked the complete alignment of the proposed above-ground route including the Massachusetts Southern Alternative in Suffield and Enfield. Two underground variations, referred to as the Newgate Variation and the Route 168/187 Variation were also field reviewed, principally by vehicle but partially by walking, as was the underground alternative for the Massachusetts Southern Altemative. No field review was performed for the Manchester to Meekville Junction Circuit Separation Project. Based on these efforts, the following comments are offered to the Council for your use in this proceeding. The proposed facility includes 11.9 miles of 345-kV circuit to be constructed within existing transmission line rights-of-way, extending from North Bloomfield Substation northward through portions of Bloomfield, East Granby and Suffield. North Bloomfield Substation would be expanded by 2.7 acres to accommodate a new switchyard and three new autotransformers. The new 345-kV line would enter Massachusetts from Suffield and would continue on to South Agawam, Agawam and Ludlow Substations. An alternate routing, referred to as the Massachusetts Southern Alternative, which would extend south from Ludlow Substation to northern Enfield and then westward to South Agawam Substation, would entail the construction of 5.4 miles of additional 345-kV transmission lines in Enfield and Suffield.
