The "March of Ives" a PBX Hike

[Jerseyman]

That would have been far downstream at route 542, right Jerseyman? I'd like to poke around there someday. We stopped at 679, by Timberland Lake Resort.

Sorry, Bob--I should have reread where you guys entered the woods near the stream before I posted my query about finding any mill remnants.

Best regards,
Jerseyman

What a beautiful day in the woods.
I really liked the lake and the large indian grass field on top of the hill next to the lake.
The club that used to be there must have had some great times at that place.
Here are some of my pics:

The group seems to pondering, is this a dam? is this a road? is this a dam road?

And finally, the lonesome boat living out its final days. It probably gave a lot of people some beautiful memories not that long ago.

Thanks to Bob, once again, for putting together a beautiful jaunt.

Scott,

Nice shot of the corduroy road! It shows what it takes to negotiate it.

I just dumped my track from the handheld.
6.4 miles from truck back to truck.

6.4 miles? Didn't bob tell us it would be about 5 miles? How can we ever trust him again?

Kidding, Bob. You planned another winner, for sure.

Looks like a fun trip and great report, sorry I missed it on such a nice day.

It's fairly obvious from terrain (and Jerseyman's excellent evidence presented in the other thread) where the mill on Ives Branch used to sit. Now, what would be really amazing would be to find some remnant of the tub mill on Tub Mill Branch.

Nice day for an outing in early February, that's for sure. Thanks Guy, Scott, Gabe, Jess, and Paul. This area was nicer than I thought it would be. We gave the trip an 8.25 out of 10.

Real nice pics Bob. Thanks for the info Mark.

Somewhat better. It makes noises when I turn my head which it did all day today as I walked, and my hearing is still slightly muffled. I do not have any pain. I wore my hat most of the day today to keep it protected.

I still hear my pulse which is really strange.

Thanks for asking jim.

Was it a middle ear infection? Those are the worst! I get them often after a cold. So I do my best to avoid getting sick. Avoiding coughers, crowds,etc.
The fluid in the ear transmits the pulse sound, it is misery. I hope you feel better soon!
