At the far northern end of Skidmore's North Woods is a large, old well made out of stone and concrete. Although the edge is fenced off, please keep an eye on children and/or pets in this area. There is sometimes rainwater collected at the bottom of the well, so it can be a little buggy in the spring and summer. Regardless, it's a neat place to stop on your hike around the North Woods.
