Yesterday the East Side Trail hosted hikers from all over Massachusetts.
The Massachusetts Land Trust Conference was held at the Worcester Technical High School (right in between the Millstone Trail and the Ghost Trail (East of Skyline Drive) of the East Side Trail system.)
Approximately 28 folks headed out from the Worc Tech, circled around back to the vernal pools and hiked the trail up to the large field. We returned via the cart paths along DMH.
The trail was surprisingly dry. There were a few puddles and an occasional wet spot, but on the whole the footing was really good.
The trail crew consisted of Cristy Barnes, Naturalist MassAudubon Society, Russ Adams of Worcester Tech, then the GWLT contingent of Gene Tivnan (aka grandfather of the trail), Bob Quevillon (trail warhorse extraordinaire), and Colin Novick.
It was sunny, with a breeze, and not quite over freezing, but a pretty darned good spring day for a hike.
Reviews of the hike were outstandingly positive!
