Most of the wild flowers were already gone but I did see these guys. No idea what they are.
The trail cuts across a number of ridges and ravines so its always either climbing or dropping. A number of the ravines had little waterfalls like this one.
Eventually the trail reached the narrow low ridge shown below. No idea if this is natural, like from a glacier, or man made. It was quite narrow and straight and went for at least half a mile. Odd.
Shortly there after the trail entered the White Memorial Conservation area which has a number of ponds. It looks like they were all originally the work of beavers, but stone dams were added later. There is still a lot of evidence of beaver activity. I found a nice rocky point near one to have lunch. Fortunately there was a breeze which kept the bugs at bay.
The trail looped around this pond, appropriately named Beaver pond, and here are some water lilies near the west shore.
