With generous funding from REI and hundreds of hours from our volunteers, ECTA constructed a 160 foot boardwalk in Willowdale State Forest that fixes a crucial link on the Bay Ciricuit Trail. As a part of last years Pan-Ipswich Challenge in May this link was underwater. Now it is available for hikers, birders, and bikers, and offers a fantastic view across the beautiful marsh. Many thanks to our volunteers, REI and our partners at Mass DCR, Topsfield Conservation, NEMBA, Bay Circuit, and Bob at Weatherall Designs.
