Walking with Thoreau, a DCR program on Saturday narrated by interpretive coordinator Mike Whalen was held at the summit. Karen and Greg took part mid-way through our hike around the summit of Mount Greylock. Be sure to catch more of these educational programs and hikes offered here, Mount Greylock State Reservation Mike is a wealth of knowledge! Photos courtesy of Karen.

Saturday’s hike at Mount Greylock State Reservation was a route from the Sperry Road CCC trail parking, up the Hopper to the Overlook Trail, then onto to Notch Road and a spur to Robinsons Point with phenomenal views! We then got on the Appalachian Trail and followed the old Thunderbolt Ski Trail to the summit ( here some of us went on Mike Whalen’s Walk with Thoreau event) lunch at Bascom Lodge, up the War Memorial then back down on the Appalachian Trail to Hopper and parking at Sperry Road. Just under 7 miles and 6 hours on the highest mountain in Massachusetts!
