August 2007 Trail Walk
 


LABYRINTH:

THE LABYRINTH IS AN ANCIENT TOOL for worship, problem solving and healing. Early civilizations all over the world used these forms on the earth, in temples and cathedrals, on pottery and architectural facades. Many old labyrinths remain, and new ones are being created.



WMHC associate Martha Douglass has determined by dowsing, as communicated through the Universe, a peaceful and contemplative area behind the Center, and created a labyrinth. It is open to the public during daylight hours from May to October. Here one may bring a question, a worry, a problem, or just take a reflective walk through the seven connected circles that look from above like the two spheres of the human brain. Directions, if one desires, will be available at the labyrinth.


TRAILS: YOU ARE INVITED TO HIKE THE TRAILS.

The WMHC has almost three miles of trails that are open to the public during daylight hours, and in the winter are available for snow-shoeing (or cross-country skiing for the more adventurous — some are pretty steep). The easiest route is to start at the top at Kyle’s Trail and work your way down to the Center. Kyle’s trail leaves from a log landing off a Madison NH Class VI Town Road (Albert Rd) , one half mile up Colby Hill Road on the right. The trail is named in honor of Kyle Koch, who built it with a team of Boy Scouts while working on his Eagle project. The landing is only 400 feet on the right from Colby Hill. The trail works its way to breath-taking views of Chocorua, Mount Washington, the Moats, and the mountains of central New Hampshire. Along the way one can stop at Stone Cutter’s Rest, a setting area cut in the granite over 100 years ago. It is a wonderful picnic destination.




From the top one may return the same way or continue on down the trail all the way to the Center. If a shorter walk is desired, you may take a .35 mile hike beyond the labyrinth or a more demanding .75 mile jaunt up the Jackson Brook Trail past Colcord Springs and through Thompson Pasture and back to the Center. Trail maps are available behind the Center at the beginning of Robbin’s way. Or we would be happy to send you one.
