Hiking
Pool Hill Forest is a small protected area just east of the Dogtown Woods. Like the surrounding area, there are large granite boulders scattered around the dense woods (no carvings on these ones though!). You might occasionally see rock climbers bouldering (climbing low-lying routes without ropes, only large pads below) on nice days in this area.
