January 14, 2008Muddy River and Back Bay Fens, Boston
A total of over 6 inches of snow fell in Boston overnight and today. It was of an unusually sticky type that accumulated easily onto the trees, making for a beautiful sight.
The photo above was taken from a small patch of the Back Bay Fens, part of Frederick Law Olmsted's Emerald Necklace, between Park Drive and the Fenway (the road by that name) near Simmons and Emmanuel Colleges. The body of water is part of the Muddy River, which largely runs through underground culverts in this area, to emerge into the open as a series of ponds, like the one above.
