The Weathersfield Historical Society will lead a hike to the purported cave where one of the last panthers in southern Vermont was killed in 1867. The cave’s location has been passed down by word of mouth over several generations and the mounted panther resides in the Historical Society’s Rev. Dan Foster House museum. The hike, which will take place Sunday afternoon September 28th, is rated easy to moderate, and will take approximately an hour and a half round trip. Hikers should meet behind the Downers Corner Store at 2:00 pm to carpool to the beginning. Sturdy hiking shoes are recommended. Call Jeff Pelton at 885-9517 for additional information.
