Dawn Starks, of Longmeadow, Mass., and her cousin Susan Helms, of Newburgh, Ind., hike towards the bottom of the Quechee Gorge in Hartford, Vt., as their husbands hike ahead on Monday, Oct. 22, 2018. Starks was last in the area 35 years ago but had never been to the bottom of the gorge, and decided the slightly cloudy skies made for good hiking weather.
