Love Hill is a lovely kame - a small round gravel hill that was left by the glacier. Actully, this kame has a split personality - it also resembles an esker if looked at in a certain direction. However, an esker usually has a definitive beginning an end, while the base of Love Hill tries its best to approximate a circle. So I claim it is a kame, and with the pen there should come a little power!

Love Hill Trail starts (or does it finish?) on Mill Brook Trail, close to Mill Brook itself. The trail first heads east, then takes a sharp left turn at the base of Love Hill and proceeds up the hill, along its flatish top, and down the opposite site. Continuing in a northerly direction, the trail crosses Glacier Trail and skirts a wonderful grove on pines on its left. This grove is affectionally know as the Japenese Tea Garden. Leaving the Japenese Tea Garden area, the trail looses ten feet of elevation and enters a treed swamp area. This treed swamp is far along in its journey of reverting to forest, so you won't get your feet wet. However, you will see the prettiest area of moss on the property.

Love Hill Trail next comes to a small, round hill. This too is a kame, but a miniature one. Turn left and head west. Shortly after arriving at the bottom of the small kame, the trail rises again. This minature-appearing-esker is a fraud! It was in fact created by Dick as a viewing area. The eskers facsimile was made from topsoil near this western boundary of Julie's. Once my esker creation provided a view of Mt. Whiteface, but much of the topsoil has since been used by Julie to extend the field which is around the pond. However, by extending the field, another view of Mt. Whiteface was created, and more people enjoy this view since dog agility folk practice here.
