Pachaug—Hodge Pond Loop

★★★★½  6.78 miles

wow, first time out in june… where does the time go? this was unexpectedly nice. there were some very pretty parts, and some cool old cellar holes and a waterfall, among other things. but there were some stretches that were in typical multi-use trail shape, i.e., rocky, eroded, muddy, and lumpy. mostly good, though.

came across this lovely little bridge in the middle of the woods… it has nice concrete aprons and a well-built wooden deck. it was unexpected and fun.

this picture was taken from the remains of either a stone bridge or a stone dam… it was hard to tell which it was.
