From the Trustees of the Reservation:
"Chapel Brook showcases the rugged beauty of the region, blending steep and deep forests, sensational summit views, and streams that surge and trickle with the seasons. At the heart of reservation lies 1,420-foot Pony Mountain, whose nearly vertical 100-foot rock face enthralls skilled rock climbers. Down below, Chapel Brook—a tributary of the South River— meanders through a dense hardwood forest before cascading over three bedrock ledges. In times of high water, Chapel Falls are in full roar. Come summer, however, the pools offer a cool, welcome dip."
