1 Silver Award Girl Scout Proposed Project Revitalization of the Quarry Woods Trail By Sierra Zahares

2 The Trail Outline = 1 mile

3 Current Status The trail path needs maintenance The trail could use more signage to mark vernal pool areas and historic quarry The trail is not marked or found easily – Directions are : Follow Bow Street from downtown Freeport, and turn right onto Lower Mast Landing Road. A trailhead is located approximately.3 mile south, on the right by a woodchip pile. During non- school hours, the Woods may also be accessed from Mast Landing School on Bow Street. At the back of the School parking lot, visitors should pass the pond to the left to find a trail.
