Trail Advisories:
- Great area for plant lovers. A booklet guide is available at the
trail head.
- Entire walk can be completed in less than an hour.
- Dog friendly area.

On-Line Information:

Drive:
Rt 495 to Rte 117 East. Go 1.5 miles. Parking on your left next to
a brown board fence.

Walk:
Go to the map board at the trailhead and pick up a guide book.
You may proceed in either direction around the loop. I
recommend that, whichever way you go, clockwise, or
anti-clockwise, you complete the entire loop, as you may also
stumble upon a "hot" box en route to or from this one.

Proceed along to marker number 15. Facing the marker, walk 10
steps on a bearing of 275 degrees (magnetic) toward the stone
wall. This day's quarry is on the far side of the stone wall under a
thin slab of granite.

When you have stamped in please replace the slab securely,
and sprinkle it with leaves.
