Walking a Wooded Retreat on the Vineyard

“A Wooded Retreat”

Laura Wainwright has written a beautiful account of her recent walk through the 106-acre Blackwater Pond Reservation Land Bank Property on Martha’s Vineyard.

As Wainwright writes, “the Land Bank and the Nature Conservancy have done a terrific job of connecting and maintaining trails in this area. Whatever your energy level, the wind, or the weather, there is a fine walk to be had. A large map by the parking area will help you outline a route, but some of the fun can be poking around and chancing a little confusion. The worst that can happen is a longer walk.”
