Ice Glen Trail: Into the Woods

After our leisurely hike along Mary Flynn Trail we headed for the Ice Glen Trail. To get there you cross over the railroad tracks and head up into the woods. “A clamber over, under and around giant boulders in a glacial ravine. The sides of the glen are covered with old stand pine and hemlock. The crags and crannies of the rocks are said to harbor ice and snow into the summer. At the south end of the glen is reputedly the tallest pine in Massachusetts.”
