We had a fun group on Saturday's adventure in Deerlick Creek.  It included visits to many scenic locations in remote Bedford Reservation including Poet's Cave, Tumble Rock Glen, Fishbowl Falls, Bridal Veil Falls and the confluence with Tinker's Creek.  Here are some links to photos and other interesting items of interest.
  • Frank's Photos
  • Fred's Photos
  • Fred's iNaturalist Observations (a few were from before the hike)
I thought you would also enjoy seeing some of Joe Jesensky's artwork from around 90 years ago.
  • Tumble Rock Glen
  • Old Quarry Falls

I hope that everyone will consider joining me on future hikes listed in my Nature Calendar.  You will find the next three months programs listed.  For 2019, here is my early draft of activities.  Please make suggestions as I enjoy adjusting based on feedback.
