Breakheart

Breakheart Reservation, Massachusetts

The first time I've heard of the Park is from two ladies we have met on Fells... Breakheart... a strange name for a park. The legend says that the  Civil War soldiers training in the area found it "lonely and remote" thus breaking their hearts... This, certainly, is a good reason for a visit...

Breakheart: ... the trail...

Breakheart: ... losing itself...

Breakheart: ... and then... Silver Lake appears...

Breakheart: ... masterfully...

Breakheart: ... dammed by humans who wished for a lake...

Breakheart: ... without hurting nature...

Breakheart: ... just like beavers...

Breakheart: ... unexpected...

Breakheart: ... virtuoso weaves...

Breakheart: ... life on the rocks...

Breakheart: ... approaching...

Breakheart: ... the highest of the peaks...

Breakheart: ... with Boston on the horizon...

Breakheart: ... off the trail...

Breakheart: ... into the green land...

Breakheart: ... with points...

Breakheart: ... and mementos...
