Picture 10 of 11 in album Pack Monadnock Mountain

Index of this album (Pack Monadnock Mountain)

Most of the forest in this part of New England was farm land at some time in the past. There are lots of places where you can be hiking along through the middle of nowhere, and suddenly come across the remains of a rock wall that extends as far into the forest as you can see on either side of the trail. It makes me think that the pioneers had nothing better to do with their time than carry big heavy rocks all over the place.
