Map 17 - Ohlin
Rating Comments: A tiny jewel of a parcel. It loses a star for being rather short. This site is small but beautiful.
Description from HCT trail guide: The trail starts off Ohlin Lane, a private way, and descends steeply to cross an intermittent stream, passing by rock ledges covered with rock tripe, a lichen, and through hemlocks and witch hazel on the way to Bowers Brook. The trail parallels Bowers Brook where there are large boulders and views across the brook and wetlands. The Trust is currently investigating the feasibility of constructing a bridge to connect with the Rodriquez and Hermann lands.
