 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Spotted a car on Rt 14 by pole 116. We parked it on the shoulder. Passenger side was in the picker bushes. Other car was at our starting point at Shady Acres Restaurant on Rt 6. Plenty of room there, it looks like the Davey Tree trucks don't park there anymore. |

Third section of our North to South trek on the North South trail. From Rt 6 to Rt 14. This section is 100% public roads, mostly paved. But a lot of the scenery was decent. Snapsquatch took a bunch of pictures. Dr. Doolittle found some dogs to talk to. Weather looked threatening when we started out but it did not rain at all once we had started, and just a sprinkle when we finished. Took about 4.5 hours to cover the 11 miles at a fairly leisurely pace. Looking forward to getting back in the woods for the next section. |
