After our experience with the Hop Brook Marsh Conservation Area the week before, I decided to set out for a sunset walk near another portion of the local creek. This time I entered through the Gray Reservation trailhead. Much like the week before, it was a nice little parking lot with some beautifully maintained trails.
After a short section through fairly dense woods, I came across the brook itself, with beautiful views of the setting sun. It was a fun place to take some pictures given that everywhere I pointed the camera it looked great. The little bridge over the brook added an extra touch to the pictures as well.
As I continued along the brook there were a few more overlooks, some more perfect trails, and also very few people. I was pleasantly surprised that I only ran into a couple people with their dogs on the entire walk, and had no trouble at all with social distancing. I ended up stopping at a viewpoint looking out over one of the marsh sections. Though the trail kept going, I decided to simply watch the sunset from there, and then made my way back to the car as it started to get dark.
