Greylock Bradley Farm Trail Ninja’s Clues
Enjoy a nice hike along the Bradley Farm Trail, part of the Mount Greylock Reservation. It’s a 1.8 mile self guided moderatly easy hike and interpretive trail that traces the history and land that used to be the Bradley Farm. Pick up a map at the Visitor’s Center, before you set out to find the box. It will help a lot with locating the spot where the letterbox is hiding! (Note: the box is found near marker 3, see instructions, but there are 13 markers on the trail, so lots to see and enjoy!)
Clues:
• Exit the Greylock Visitor Center, and go to the far end of the parking lot, look for the sign that says Bradley Farm Trail
• Follow the trail and the blue blazes, past marker one 1. Ancient Orchard
• Then follow the trail past marker two 2. Deepening valleys
• Just after this, you will cross a stone wall that crosses the trail, this is marker three 3. Labor of Love
• Pause and check out this stone wall, it was built using rocks turned up from the plowed fields on the Bradley Farm, and a lot of the wall still remains
• Just after marker 3, you will see a sign (on the left) at the head of a trail, that says Visitor Center with an arrow pointing to the Visitor Center
• Take a left onto this side trail, and go about 30 paces, look to your left, you will see the wall, and an old tree, that has three trunks (one or more are broken off at the top), and the trunks make a v shape
• When you find this tree, stop, cross over the wall to the back side of the tree where there is a nook, inside which, under some large pieces of tree bark, is hidden our letterbox.
• Please leave us a message, and put things back exactly as you found them for the next visitor.
• We hope you will continue back on the main trail, to see the rest of the 1.8 mile loop………..you will have a ways to go to get back to the Visitor’s Center.
• Happy hunting, thank you, The Berkshire Ninja’s!!!!!!!
