Readers will learn answers to questions such as: What family is associated with the cellar hole near the parking lot? How old is the first pond you come to? Where was the colonial-era sawmill, and where did its water come from? How did Mount Misery get its name? What was Glacial Lake Sudbury and how did it shape this terrain?
