This year, the route for our Trails Day hike was a little different. We started at the Dog Park parking lot and headed down thru a bit of the north section of the valley on the
Red Trail. The weather was great!
We then ascended the Indian ledge area, Everyone agreed - it was awesome! :-)
We reassembled near the
Pump House trail in the Whitney parking lot for a group photo.
Next we headed up through
Parlor Rock including a stop on the big rock for the adventurous. I forgot to take a photo but here's one of that spot from a previous trek:
Parlor Rock is a small area but the scenery here is delightful.
On the way back, we paid a closer visit to the
Radcliffe Woolen Mills ruins...
and the awesome glacially sculpted channel of the Pequonnock River:
This caught me eye - the diagonal fallen tree propped up by the cliff and the starkly horizontal fungi protruding from the side...
All in all it was a great hike and folks really enjoyed it!
