Met Wuzzam at the Nipmuck at the Route 44 Crossing, planning to run south.  It was a bit cooler than it has been, but really comfortable (40's and bright sunlight).

We were planning to run to the Grist Mill, turn-a-round, and if we felt energetic once back at the cars, maybe head north towards Marsh Road.  When we got to the Grist Mill, our pace was strong and I asked if we could continue on the Nipmuck along the Fenton River further south.  Back on March 24th, 2019, we explored this section and none of Wuzzam, Old Goat or I thought much of it.  At the end of that post, I actually wrote "...I'll reserve judgement on this section of the Nipmuck until I revisit during a dryer season.  The area along the Fenton River is very scenic and beautiful, but much of the trail on the east side was very eroded and difficult to gain rhythm with."

Today, the section in question was actually enjoyable.  Still some roots making the rhythm of running difficult, but these sections were short.  We kept to the trail all the way up to the junction with the road to Hank's Hill.  Ended the day with 8.5-miles in under two-hours.  Good Work / Good Effort.  And enjoyable too!
