Leads right off of Old Country Road going north, very wide "intersection" right at 41.42631, -72.52962. Couple hikers and bikers, no other vehicles. Easy gravel road with tons of ATV/etc. offshoot trails, though we didn't make use of them. Going north leads right back to a major road. Very easy and peaceful.

Off the hard pack dirt road are several nice sectors with mud holes, ruts, fallen trees and even a tight ravine descent.

Nice dirt road through the woods. Passed a couple hikers and cyclists. There’s a little offshoot on the south end with a mud puddle, small vehicle beware of large rock in there.
