Cornwall Conservation Trust Trails Intro

Cornwall

While gathering up information for this page and its list of trails, I noticed that there is a mountain in Cornwall called Bloody Mountain. Intrigued, I researched the name and found only one reference from about a hundred years ago: “Bloody Mountain got its name from a battle that did not take place here.”

Um. Thanks?

The above picture is directly from the CCT website. I don’t know about you, but if I was going to post pictures to attract people to my properties, I’d leave off the one with all the poison ivy. Maybe that’s just me.

Regardless, Cornwall is a beautiful and rugged town with some surviving old growth forest and scenic vistas and you all should check it out sometime.
