Trail Notes

Official Town guide (V7, April 2026): Distance 1.25 miles, Duration 30+ min, Activity Level easy/flat. FLAG FOR JEN: Town's own acreage table lists the actual town-owned parcel at just ~1.1 acres (0.3 conservation area + 0.8 beach area) -- much of the loop crosses a private-property easement. Sheet's 12-acre figure may be counting the full walked loop rather than town-owned land; worth a note either way.
