Yesterday on my way back to Thornton from Brookline I returned to the Castle in the Clouds property. Not feeling too energetic I decided to do a short loop over the Brook Walk from the bottling plant parking, then go up the Mount Roberts Trail to the outlook, for a total of about four miles and 700 feet of elevation gain, with good to excellent footing and no really steep parts. All in all a very enjoyable little hike 
I took a few photos along the Brook Walk, which I added to my earlier post Waterfalls Along Shannon Brook. All others are in my new post Brook Walk and Lower Mount Roberts Trail.
