 | Comments: |
Very nice loop with a short walk back to parking where it comes out on Rt 113. Lots of lady slippers, bunch berry just coming out, Canada mayflowers and birds - heard a winter wren and a hermit thrush, saw a scarlet tanager. And a couple of red efts. Old graveyard along the last bit of trail (Old Highway portion) |
