A wonderful phenomenon in today’s growing world is the preservation of small properties by land trusts. There are many such organizations in New Hampshire, guaranteeing places to get out in nature outside protected federal land like the White Mountain National Forest.

I intend to write more about them as potential places to hike, and a good place to start is a wonderful walk I took last week in a new preserve in Sandwich — the Dot Banks Nature Trail in the Tompkins Preserve.
