A view of the Quabbin Resevoir

Several weeks ago, before the snow started to fly, we took a short hike through the Federation of Womens Clubs State Forest so that we could enjoy the view of the Quabbin Resevoir.  From this vantage point, the view is absolutely stunning. 

A Winter hike into Dana, Massachusetts; you won't find it on any current map.

Shortly before this week's snowstorm, which brought a foot of snow to the Quabbin region of Massachusetts, we hiked into Dana, Massachusetts.  Technically, Dana no longer exists.  Neither does Enfield, Prescott or Greenwich.  People in these four towns were forced to give up their homes so that residents of Boston could have a fresh supply of water.
