 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Pain in the neck. Sheepfold and Bellevue Pond parking lots were full, as well as good ways to get trapped (one way traffic, and people would just sit there idling in front of a line of cars, waiting for a space to open up). I eventually found a space on South Border Road, just beyond Gate 6. |

 | Comments: |
Quick jog in the southern Middlesex Fells.
Trails were generally dry with occasional minor frost-melt mud and a few tiny patches of ice. Nice views from Wright Tower on Pine Hill and on Wenepoykin with the leaves down. Highly recommend having a map handy (had one saved on my phone), as there are all sorts of trails and junctions. |
