Out and about...almost to NH

I had a most pleasant experience north of the Fitchburg Reservoir in Ashby Sunday. I found a big hill to climb and a spring and brook to descend and saw the largest stone mound ever - for me. There were lots of other features spotted around in the same valley and an undisturbed feel to the place - a complex and interesting site. Looking at the topo map now, I think it will take a month or more to explore all the other little valleys up there - at Blood Hill.

More later. For now, here is a picture of a mound built into a boulder, right next to Richardson Rd. on the north side of the Reservoir.
