The final stretch of the hike will be on Gulf Road which is closed for the winter. The tumble of glacial erratics in the Gulf are quite unique and are especially beautiful in the winter landscape.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Location:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bnrc.org\/reserves\/the-boulders\">The Boulders<\/a>, Gulf Rd.
