You will need to walk to the kiosk on the other end of the plantation. Take a right and follow the trail along the Merrimack River heading towards the highway bridge. BE CAREFUL! THERE IS A HUGE DROP-OFF INTO THE RIVER! DO NOT GET TO CLOSE! As you head along the river, there is a trail that heads back into Pine Plantation which you will need to take. Locate the first tree in the first row closest the highway. It is there you will find the cute critter.
