Description
This trail starts from the edge of the field, at Junction 1. It travels for a short distance and passes by a connector (on the left). It closely follows Perkins Brook through a Hemlock forest. At the bridge, the trail continues straight. The trail follows the boundary of HUB North and climbs up to the ridge. The trail stays right and climbs up to CCC Perimeter West. There's a nice little cascade above the second bridge, right before the top of Perkins Path.
