Hecla
Title:  Hecla
Description:  The next spot that we went to was Hecla Pond, located in a Township called East Brunswick. The right of way is seen on the other side of the pond and after a small grassy area. There is word that some trees are going to be grown, possibly making the spot not photo friendly down the road.
