REF. # 03000075 CURRENTLY THERE IS A PICTURE OF THIS SITE IN THE LISTING BUT IT IS SO HEAVILY OVERGROWN WITH FOLIAGE THAT IT IS DIFFICULT TO REALIZE IT IS A WATER FILLED QUARRY. TO GET THE PICTURE I AM SENDING I HAD TO HIKE UP A HILL AND THROUGH HEAVY UNDERBRUSH TO FIND A BREAK IN THE FENCE WHERE THIS PICTURE COULD BE TAKEN. IT IS BEST VIEWED WHEN THE LEAVES AREOFF THE TREES TO SOME EXTENT. THIS VANTAGE POINT IS JUST OFF BROOKLINE DRIVE NEAR WHERE IT JOINS WITH WALTONVILLE ROAD.
