Usually I paddle at least once over the Thanksgiving holiday, but it didn’t work out this year. Instead I did the Papa Joe hike at the Borderland State Park.
Borderland State Park was of the former estate of the Ames family. In 1906, Oakes Ames and his wife Blanche purchased this land on the border of Sharon and Easton where they built a mansion and created a nature preserve with woodland paths and roadways and man-made ponds. Today the park includes 1,843 acres with more than 20 miles of trails including sections of the of the Bay Circuit Trail.
We started at the main entrance, and hiked 6.3 miles around Leach Pond and through the park. It didn’t rain during the hike, but the many of the trails were flooded. Still a good time.
