Waterbury's Little River settlement (abandoned)

My sister Kittie and I took a hike over at Waterbury's Little River Park to get a glimpse of the abandoned village that was once there.

We stopped by the reservoir dam and it was beautiful.

After asking the ranger for directions (which I  initially screwed up!), we found our way to the head of the Dalley Loop trail and hiked just a tinny bit of the loop. The village was on the flank of a mountain and the Loop trail is a long slog up!

We hiked up as far as the Bert Goodell Farm

It a bit hard to see in the photo but this was the foundation

Deep carved, rocky ravines were frequent on the mountainside.
