Welcome to my Northville Placid Trail website!
I created this website shortly after my first thru-hike in 2002. It was a way to share my experiences on the trail with family and friends. Over the years, as my adventures have taken me back there, and as I receive requests for additional information about the trail, I have tried to keep it up to date.
You can now find 4 trip reports here – 2 thru-hikes and 2 section hikes.
There is also general information on the sidebar to the right.
I hope you enjoy the site!
Site Redesign
While redesigning Townsandtrails.com I became motivated to also redesign this site. The old one was showing its age and was a bit of a pain to update. My hope is that this new design will be easier for visitors to use and will increase the frequency with which I am able to post new information. Absolutely feel free to email me with feedback or to let me know if you run into any problems with the site.
Looking for Northville Placid trip reports to host on our site
This site has been one of the go-to sources of online information about the trail. I am hoping to expand it slightly by offering trail reports/journals and photos from the perspective of others who have hiked it.
We would provide free long-term hosting of your journal text and photos, as well as some technical support in laying it out for the web. If interested, please email me at: dave@townsandtrails.com
