In honor of lifetime GMC members Jan and Harris Abbott.

GMC's biggest annual fundraiser is Long Trail Day. This year we led hikes & events on Aug. 19th. (Our LT hikes on October 7th were rained out.)

(above) Jan and Harris Abbott, long-time members of the Bread Loaf Section.  For more than forty years they have been giving back to GMC and we are inspired by their work.

Ivor Hughes, a well-known hike leader from Monkton, has generously provided the Bread Loaf Section with a dozen of his highly entertaining and educational "movies," documenting his recent backpacking trips with friends.
