| Comments: |
Did a leisurely afternoon hike to the top of the most prominent peak in Middlesex County, 1,516 ft. Blood Hill. The trail was short and simple, and the summit is open and rocky with a good view to the northeast. Despite it being a Sunday with excellent weather, I didn't see anyone else on this hike.
Another new peak in the books, and an afternoon well spent. |
