Trail Overview
The Bay Road trail is one of the trails fully within the Paulk's Pasture WMA. It is an out-and-back trail, but in combination with Gibson Island Road and the Gibson/Bay Connector trail, it provides a long winding loop through the southwestern section of the WMA. The trail surface is packed dirt with crushed gravel mixed in, giving the road a sturdy surface. Stands of cultivated Loblolly Pine and mixed scrub, along with several recently harvested areas, make up the sidelines of the trail. The end of the trail is marked with a gate leading onto private land. Please respect private property even if the gate is open. Gibson/Bay Connector trail continues on to the left. Trail access requires a valid hunt/fish license or a Lands Pass to enter.
