Comments
Comments: Great afternoon in the Ward Reservation. The trails, especially on and around Holt Hill, were in great shape with soft footing. The quaking bog was neat, too- this is a worthy destination in itself if you so choose. There are a lot of trails here, so study the trail map carefully to find your way.
