With AWD, I didn't attempt to get up the short road segment to the trailhead - I parked along Route 49 right across from trailhead sign - plenty of space to pull completely off pavement. |

 | Water Crossing Notes: |
First crossing - Drakes Brook on Drakes Brook Trail was a bit icy - no snowbridge - was able to rock hop with care. Later in the day Drakes Brook near base of Sandwich Mtn Trail was half-bridged - I was ready to exit to the road rather than try to cross the brook if it were too high but it was OK. |
