On July 7, a lightning strike exploded a huge pine tree blocking the Middlesex Drive entrance to Long Lake Park. The trail is once again accessible to the public. Thank you for your patience while we cleared the area. As always, we ask you to use caution and be aware of potential hazards when hiking Littleton’s trails. If you notice any dangerous situations we want to hear from you. Trail issues can be reported through the Littleton Conservation Trust website by clicking the Contact Us / Report a Trail Issue tab.
