Land OwnerTown of Norton Conservation
This trail could one day become the best and flowiest green trail in eastern Massachusetts ... but right now it is a rear derailleur threatening deadfall fest that needs a ton of TLC and clearing. With that work, however, and with an end-connection at either Maggi Lane or the Norton Powerline (both of which will likely require a bridge), this trail would become a true crown jewel.
The trail starts on a modest esker off of Red Paw trail, and dances up and down until it climbs another esker overlooking the TPC Boston golf course. Eventually it descends near wetlands, where it eventually terminates in overgrowth.
Even before any work occurs, this trail is worth checking out to appreciate its significant potential for greatness.
