This is a beautiful scenic gorge nestled in the Blackstone River Valley within central MA.
It is common to see many people throughout the year, no matter what the weather is.
However, the chasm itself may be closed due to either extreme wet or icy conditions.
Be sure to stop by their visitor's center and get a map of the area and trails, and read
a little history on the chasm.
This series of boxes are inspired and dedicated to my future wife Greta. For those with romance in mind might want to consider these boxes as part of a romantic day or picnic. BTW, after checking these boxes in June of 2001, we noticed many mosquitoes in the area, so be prepared by bringing some bug-dope!!!
