Great Brook Walk

Saturday, November 20, 2021 11:32 AM | Anonymous member (Administrator)


Twenty members of the TOHG Walking and Hiking Group met at 10:30 a.m. at the Great Brook parking area in Carlisle. We had three new Top of the Hill Gang members on the walk they were Joanne H., Margaret L. and  Karla  S.

We started off under clear blue skies, no wind and 40 degree temperatures. After walking through a portion of Great Brook State Park, we then crossed into Chelmsford’s Thanksgiving Forest, where the trails had all been swept clean. The Chelmsford Boy Scouts take care of this area. We passed the River Meadow Brook and found the Thanksgiving Rock formation where a picture was taken of the whole group. After walking back as far as the small bridge that crossed the brook, we divided into two groups. One headed back through the corn field and then into the pine forest, finishing at the picnic area. The other group crossed the brook and continued on the other side to view the abandoned cabin area, as well as the old dam and mill site, eventually ending at the picnic area where the rest of the gang had arrived. We all socialized and wished each other a very Happy Thanksgiving.

The total time walking was about two hours and the distance was about 3.5 miles.
