About this postcard

A rocky, boulder-strewn slope rises through a stand of tall, mostly bare deciduous trees, with a jumble of broken stone and leaf litter in the foreground. The card names the spot as Wild Cat Notch in the Blue Hills, the rugged reservation of wooded hills and ledges south of Boston in Milton, Quincy and Randolph, Massachusetts, long a destination for walking and nature study.
