HI! My name is Karina. I go to the Amigos School in Cambridge, MA. In my science class we have been to many field trips but I am only going to tell you one of them which is Middlesex Fells in Medford, MA. When you go there you will not believe how exciting it is! There is a lot of evidence of ancient volcanoes like gabbro, granite, and basalt! Also if you look very carefully you can see that one side looks different than the other.

Here is a way that you can get to [|Middlesex Fells] once you have gone to this website you will be able to find the way to get there by looking on your left side; there is another link that can take you exactly how you can go to Middlesex Fells.

Once you get to Middlesex fells you will see all the different types of rocks like gabbro, granite and basalt which are all igneous rocks which means they are rocks that come from the inside of a volcano. There are many rocks that you can climb; we at Amigos School climb a lot of them and it was so much fun! There is also evidence which shows that volcanoes dropped these rocks. Another great thing about Middlesex Fells is that what ever type of weather, if its snowing or raining you are always welcome!

Here’s some info that I got from the [|website] it shows how much we have done already for Middlesex Fells: The impact of 20th century man can also be seen throughout the Fells in the works of landscape architects Charles Eliot and George Olmstead as well as the Civilian Conservation Corp and the Work Progress Administration. Route 93 and many other roads as well as several drinking water projects have impacted the landscape. However, when you walk the many quiet hiking trails and old forest roads that wind through the reservation, you may forget that you are only a few miles from Boston. The Fells includes areas in Medford, Winchester, Stoneham, Melrose and Malden, and is easily accessible from U.S. Route 93 or Mass. Rte. 28, numerous bus lines, rapid transit and commuter rail.

You should go we Amigos School had a blast we know you will☺!
