Eventually I reached the area that had been underwater as the Keystone Pond. Once the dam was removed, the Boardman River once again flowed free along a meandering path and what had been underwater is now high, dry, and flourishing with wild flowers and grasses.

This was a wonderful hike with an easy, wide, mostly flat trail. I will be back.
