We started at a parking area on Route 20 and hiked north on the Taconic Crest Trail (TCT) ... all the way to Berry Pond campground. It was a nice ridge walk that was marred only by the occasional sounds of ATVs on nearby trails/roads (unfortunately they are legal here in the Pittsfield State forest, but at least there were none on the trail I was on). We saw only a few other hikers and one pooch today. Given that I hiked over 5 hours, I figured that I burned around 2400 calories.
Round-trip Distance: 12.0 mi
