  • Google Maps link
  • The site can only be reached by boat. It is a bit of a hike from the nearest road to the water's shore. I have no idea if the land around the north end of the reservoir is public or private. The reservoir itself seems to be a public water source for the city of Worchester.
  • Somebody else on the internet kindly posted a few pictures of the area. They might be useful for those who wish to gear up properly for the terrain. Pine Hill Reservoir
  • The weather is expected to be partly cloudy, with a high in the low to mid 70's during the afternoon.

My boyfriend and I will probably get there mid-afternoon, hike around a bit, gawk at the water, take pictures, and then find somewhere to eat. If you see a short, plump girl and a tall, skinny man wandering around the north shore with a GPS device, say hi!

Suggestions on local eating places (and possible meetups) are welcome.
