Need to Know

There are two spots on the main path that are often swampy, but there are bypasses through the woods around them. The first mud bypass, from Rt 5 down, is on the left and has some older wooden bridges built for getting over the wet area, be careful the first time you take this path. The second bypass is shortly after returning back to the main path and is on the right.

Description

Mostly easy to ride doubletrack with two stretches of singletrack.
