"Great hike to go with kids. Make sure to spray against mosquitoes"

"Beautiful glen tucked in the midst of suburban sprawl. Ravine is created by Bear Brook cutting through the sandstone. This is quick in and out trek, easy access to the Brook itself. Plentiful parking unless there is a game in progress on adjacent field."

"Pretty spot for a short hike."

"Avoid this place during & after any rainfall &/or snow: several steep dropoffs, slippery rocky areas, but otherwise easy peaceful walk/hike, serene water flowing through, interesting geology, & free parking, but zero facilities besides port-a-johns"
