On Bradford’s Trail: Clark’s Island

Clark’s Island was the first landing spot of the Pilgrims in Plymouth Bay. It remains a rather remote spot, accessible only by boat. This was probably the most exciting trip of the Bradford project, and it is worthy of a lengthier video or blog post. For now, a few photos will have to suffice.
