You don't have to go far if you're looking for a nice mountain hike nearby. In Goffstown, the Uncanoonuc Mountains Hiking Trails provide hikers with beautiful scenic views of Goffstown and the Merrimack Valley. David Pierce, a retired cartographer, has provided the Conservation Commission with a map highlighting paths hikers can take. The map is also posted near the beach at Uncanoonuc Lake, and at the Village bulletin board on Mountain Road, and is available to copy at the Library.
