Look at the following post : โ€œA Way Way WAY back Wednesday Walk in NYCโ€
It will tell you also the rules of joining in at the Wednesday walk posts ๐Ÿ˜

Todayโ€™s selection will be of 31 photographs, where I take you along on a visit to โ€GLEN MEADOW LOOPโ€ ~ in ADAMS - #Massachusetts.**

I visited this area on 29 September and it is part of my trip around some New England States in the USA 23 September - 9 October 2022 ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ ๐Ÿ˜Š

The Photographs in this post are taken with my new #Canon R5 with 24 - 105 mm lens. ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿค“

I will follow the time stamps on my photographs. So it looks like you are walking along with me on this #walk around the MEADOW LOOP ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป #discovering everything and seeing the little #details through my eyes. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Let me show you first its location on Google maps, see the yellow star โญ๏ธ :

Zooming out for itโ€™s location next to the city of Adams:

The GLEN MEADOW LOOP is part of the Greylock Glen Trails.

More information about those trails you find in the following website: Greylock Glen Trails

Letโ€™s start our WALK now:
Are you coming along? ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜Š

At the entrance towards the trail we see a small little pond.

Than we find a gravel path leading the way for the loop. ๐Ÿค“

A grass field and a gazebo are next to us where we find some benches if you want to rest or enjoy just the surroundings. Donโ€™t think we need to rest yetโ€ฆ as we have to start our walk first. Maybe at the end when you are tired we can sit for a moment and watch the world go by ๐Ÿ—บ ๐Ÿ˜Š

We find this sign that tells us the loop is 1.7 miles long. So thatโ€™s just fineโ€ฆ for todays Wednesday walk๐Ÿค“๐Ÿ˜‰

And here we goโ€ฆ we follow the path all the way around and have some beautiful views around us. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

In the distance we see:

Mount Greylock and itโ€™s Veterans War Memorial Tower.
(I visited the tower too, but I will write another time about it ๐Ÿ˜‰)

As we follow the path we see this large pond.

Surprisingly we find some apple ๐ŸŽ trees along the way too ๐Ÿ˜Š๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŽ

The #pond looks so serene this day. The #autumnal colours just started and are #reflected in the #water. ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿ

We also find beautiful flowers along the way ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ’œ

And some trees with lots of details, could a lightning โšก๏ธ strike have caused the tree to split?

More wild flowers ๐ŸŒธ and a bee ๐Ÿ canโ€™t be missed.
You must know by now, I love โค๏ธ bees ๐Ÿ
And #alwaysaflower is needed in a post too ๐Ÿ˜‰

Some lovely white flowers guide us further along the path ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ˜Š

The birch trees ๐ŸŒณ are just so tall and tower high above us out. What a lovely sight! Donโ€™t you think? ๐Ÿ˜Ž

We walk further and furtherโ€ฆ cross dark areas and open spaces ๐Ÿ˜Š

We even find some mushrooms ๐Ÿ„ this fungy is found on the fallen tree. The others I will post in a separate post soon ๐Ÿค“

Next we find some iron remains in the woods. Iโ€™m curious and walk into the forest to find out what it is. ๐Ÿค“

I see the following ruins of a building, itโ€™s small.

It looks interestingโ€ฆ ๐Ÿค”

From the build and the other remains we seeโ€ฆ it looks like this is part of the bottom part of a ski lift ๐Ÿšก going up the Greylock mountain.

We see a few more buildings and when a walker saw us exploring these remainsโ€ฆ this local confirmed what we were thinking already. ๐Ÿค“๐Ÿšก๐Ÿšก๐Ÿšก

Details of trees ๐ŸŒณ ๐ŸŒฒ along the wayโ€ฆ

We reach the other side of the pond now as we almost finished our loop ๐Ÿ”

I find this cute autumn leaf ๐Ÿ

We decide to look for a few moments closer at the pond. As there are some remarkable #reflections to be seenโ€ฆ the #surface of the water is like a mirror ๐Ÿชž

Wowโ€ฆ so beautiful ๐Ÿฅฐ

A bit further we see the mountain also reflected in the pond โ›ฐ

And zooming out we see it all โ›ฐ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ˜Š

We walk towards the little gazebo now and find a few little #birds in the grass searching for #insects ๐Ÿ•ท


And with this last photograph I say:
