Description

This trail starts off Gould Road, then (in a short distance), crosses over the snowmobile trail. It follows an old woods road (for a short ways), then turns onto a singletrack that parallels a stone wall. The trail comes out to the snowmobile trail and coincides with this over the bridge.

It ascends the hill via switchbacks, with the uppermost loop overlooking the brook. From here, the trail descends through a Pine and Hemlock Forest down to West Mountain Road.
