Mt. Toby
Sunderland, MA, Leverett, MA

Tower Road
Route: Tower Road
Nice jog to the tower. Gated road mostly dry. Nice views from the tower (not much to see from the ground). Saw a very small patch of Hepatica about 1/10th of a mile before the Roaring Falls junction on Tower Road. Lots of trillium in bloom around this section as well.
