Exploring Pioneer Valley
To learn a little bit about Massachusetts geology, we headed out to the Connecticut River Valley. Our first stop was to see some fossilized dinosaur tracks near Northampton, and then hike up Mt Holyoke (elev 936). I need to hike a mountain where there isn't a parking lot at the top (but this explains why some people think there is a road to the top of Mt Rainier)! My favorite picture from this trip is Bella being "loved" by a couple of kids in the Mt Holyoke parking lot.
