Description
This trail starts off Bailey Road/Corridor 100 and heads eastward (towards the reservoir). It travels through a logged area, then turns left to follow the western shoreline. It fords a few streams and reaches the inlet of the Deerfield River at the northern end. You'll either have to turn back or ford the river.
