Hoosic Tunnel Loop Trail

Assuming you ascended Mount Negus to access this trail, the trail starts from here. The trail follows Tunnel Road to the left, just below the reservoir. It arrives at a junction where you can either continue following the road straight or turn right into the woods. Here, at the junction, there's a kiosk with a map of the trails. If you take the trail to the right, it traverses through the woods until it reaches the Fife Brook Overlook Trail. Here, the trail turns left and winds its way through the woods, then ascends a rocky ridge. There are a few scant views of the river and dam below. The roar of the water can still be heard clearly from the lofty heights of the ridge. It traverses over the spine of the ridge, then dips down. It climbs up to another ridgetop and follows it south. It turns left and descends back to Tunnel Road. The trail follows Tunnel Road (to the left), back to the kiosk. According to Google Maps, Tunnel Road continues southwest to River Road... this is incorrect. I tried to follow the road, according to the map, it doesn't exist. Although I was lost for nearly a half hour, I ended up on a snowmobile trail that took me down to River Road. I was trying to avoid descending the steep, icy slope of Negus Mountain... how wrong, I was.
