Yesterday I led an
Appalachian Mountain Club hike from Olivia's Overlook, Lenox, across Yokun Ridge, up to Lenox Mountain and down the Bousquet ski trails (approx 7 miles). It was a great day--less humid and a little cooler than last week.
I love this trail. The northern section of the ridge called Mahanna Cobble has recently been preserved by the
Berkshire Natural Resources Council. The views are magnificent!
