Bristol Pond is one of those perfect places to spend a sunny, fall afternoon. The pond, also known as Winona Lake, is a beautiful spot for canoeing, kayaking and fishing.The Hogback Mountains sit along the eastern border of Bristol Pond, making the area especially scenic. You can access the pond off the Bristol-Monkton Road, a few miles north of the town of Bristol.
When I stopped by the pond a few days ago to admire the fall foliage, I was really happy to have my camera with me. Now I just need to buy a kayak.

So peaceful Erica! Sure makes me want to visit!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful place to spend a few days. There must be several Hogback Mountains in the state. There is one right near Brattleboro off Rte 9 - great place to go hiking.
ReplyDeleteJust caught up with your recent posts - thanks for the link to Newfane Heritage Festival. We had a great weekend with what I like to call "tourist bureau weather" - delightful, picture perfect. Wonderful images fyou post from around the state - wish I could get to the north part more often.
ReplyDeleteHi Chris -- I'm so glad the Newfane Heritage Festival was a success. Columbus Day Weekend was so beautiful, and the weather was perfect for the event. Hope you're doing well!
ReplyDeleteThank you Lorac! It's a beautiful spot.
ReplyDeleteHi Hilke -- I was thinking about Hogback in southern VT when I was writing this post. The Hogback you refer to is on my list to visit! Hope you're having a lovely fall in southern VT. How about that snow?!?
