 | Comments: |
Great place, 35 minutes from home. Lots of diversity; the paved areas were packed (think Franconia on Columbus day) but only a few minutes into the woods it is quiet, think Evan's Notcj midweekš (other than the traffic on Rt 1). Nice ups and downs, actual climbing on rocks, good views. Took the paved road back to the car. .
