Ice Glen Trail

This is a relatively easy hike, minus all the slick rocks and stairs. Starting from the parking area, the trail crosses the footbridge over the Housatonic River. It enters the woods, just past the railroad tracks, and begins its ascent. It levels out as it passes a large boulder (on the right), carved in memory to David Dudley-Field. Shortly after this memorial stone, the trail traverses through the mini canyon, where one may still see ice at any given time of the year. This small canyon reminds me of the Mahoosuc Notch in NH/ ME. After the canyon, the trail descends to Ice Glen Road, where it ends.
