the Berkshire County Historical Society’s exhibition on the New Deal, this
class will take advantage of the work done by the Civilian Conservation Corps
from 1933 – 1942 in developing state forests and parks. Walks will take place
in Pittsfield State Forest, Mt. Greylock, Bear Mountain, October Mountain and
Savoy Mountain. Walks will vary in length but with a goal of 90 minutes in
length. Easy to moderate in difficulty, but over rough terrain.
