Springside Park—a hidden gem veiled in the mundane, as if Yggdrasil itself, sans cosmic-grandeur, chose to root in the unassuming soil of Pittsfield. My dog and I wandered through these beginner/intermediate level trails, where they offer both sanctuary and enigma. Discarded camping gear and forsaken relics lie like cast runes, each a silent stanza in a skald's forgotten hymn.

These woods, pulsing with a Loki-esque aura of anarchic melancholy, is more than it appears—a sanctuary concealed in plain sight, as elusive yet palpable as Odin's wisdom. Here, the seeker and the lost alike find their footprints mingling on the same path, each step a meditation on life's duality.

In this paradoxical haven, my pup and I discovered not just a walk, but an unfolding narrative that captivates and questions, a saga hidden in the everyday. #dogs #homeless #trails #anarchy #loki #graffiti #hiddengem #easyaccess
