3.87 miles; westerly, ri i thought i’d walk the grills backwards from the way i usually always walk it. very cool! like having a whole new preserve to explore! here’s the view from “big hill.” i don’t usually go up here; it’s a short out-and-back spur trail, and the view, once you’ve seen it, doesn’t […]
