Trail Overview

Brown Road offers a host of challenges through a heavily wooded mix of private property and Savoy State Forest. The north end of the trail is dry and rocky, but this soon gives way to a mix of grassy trails with deep ruts and numerous mud holes. During wetter seasons, these mudholes turn into small muddy pools up to 20 inches deep.

The entire trail was frozen. We got stuck in the frozen puddle. I give it a 6/10 due to the ice.

We came up from the south (much easier than from the north!), and encountered two very large trees that had fallen across the trail. There is VERY little room to turn around, and all we had was a small chainsaw. We cut what we could and winched the trunks to the side to be able to pass. A larger chainsaw will be needed to totally clear the path.
