Last week the walkers trekked into Shaker Woods via West Shore Road and the old County Road bordered by a rock wall. It was a perfect day to go to Aurelia’s Cascade and Loon Point where the eaglet was perched and chatting up a storm.  We then ventured to Shaker Cove where we looked at the remains of Camp Jenny that was the beach house for the Shaker girls. The leaves are getting vibrant!

This week, we plan on heading back to Poland Spring Preservation Park trails to see Lower Range Pond and the foliage. The trails are on the Poland Spring Inn property and you can find detailed directions and a map here at Maine Trail Finder. We will meet at the lower parking lot by the Water Museum at 10 a.m.

Please be prepared for the trail terrain.  Stay safe and keep walking!
