We took our three kids (ages 8, 10, and 12) snowshoeing this morning and did a loop around the beaver pond. Beautiful and scenic views. Easy to moderate trails.

Acquired by the Commonwealth in 1898, the first state park in Massachusetts also contains the states highest peak at 3,419 feet.

Drove up to the summit with younger grandchildren ( 6 & 8). The views are breathtaking, and the Lighthouse Tower is pretty awesome to see. A small restaurant and Inn are also at the site. Social distancing was respected, and everyone I saw wore a mask. Families picnic on blankets, and there are many trails and camping areas. This Reservation is part of the Appellation Trail, and is a, 'must see'.
