The overcast skies, moderate temperature, and blustery wind came together for terrific conditions to clear the knoll at Mandell Hill today. From this spot along the loop trail you get a clear view across the fields, down the Ware River valley and even Mount Wachusett. Head on out for a hike and enjoy the knoll at Mandell Hill. Start at the parking area off Barre Road in Hardwick.
