This postcard view of the Mohawk Trail (Massachusetts State Route 2) near Charlemont advertises not only the well-groomed road but also scenic vistas. As New England became more industrialized at the turn of the 20th century, some people sought temporary escapes by traveling along rural routes such as the Mohawk Trail. This route is still popular today with tourists.
