On Little Pond Road in Woodford, Vermont.

The Vermont State House, located in Montpelier, is the state capitol of the U.S. state of Vermont. It is the seat of the Vermont General Assembly. The current Greek Revival structure is the third building on the same site to be used as the State House.
Last year during Memorial Day Weekend, I hiked back to Bourne Pond and Stratton Pond via the Bourne – Stratton Pond Trail and Branch Pond Road.
The trail between those two ponds is somewhat lightly traveled, a bit overgrown and in one spot challenging to follow, but has some beautiful views.
One of the challenges is crossing the Windhall River, but up a ways from the main trail, rocks have been placed to ease with crossing.
Lots of deer and moose poop could be seen along the way.
Being spring time, there was Columbine to be seen along the trail.
As you reach Stratton Pond, you follow the Stratton Pond outflow, a pretty but buggy little stream.
Stratton Pond is quite a nice little pond.
While Bourne Pond isn’t quite as nice, it is very popular with campers during the holiday weekend.
After my hike, I was happy to get back to camp.
Enjoying the campfire on Sunday night.
This time I decided to hike the full Stratton Mountain - Stratton Pond loop on Sunday. While hardly a beautiful day, it was interesting to see the other side of Stratton Pond from the one I visited last Memorial Day.
