mm 0.0 Sign on the south side of the Sages Ravine Brook crossing. Even though the ravine is actually in Massachusetts, this crossing has traditionally been the dividing line between the sections maintained by the CT chapter of the Appalachian Mountain Club (to the south) and the Berkshire chapter of the AMC (to the north). Thus the Welcome to Connecticut sign. GPS N42.0524 W 73.4440
