Last weekend, I headed over to Brownfield, Maine, to climb Burnt Meadow Mountain (1,575 feet). This is a great hike for aerobic exercise and good views in a mellow southwest Maine landscape.

When I got to the small parking lot off Route 160, it was blocked off with sand and concrete barriers because of the pandemic. But there were four cars safely parked just out from the barriers along the road. I pulled in behind them.
