Comments
Comments: While in the area today and having had to bail on another hike due to a sore knee, I walked a 3.3 mi. loop on this nice trail system, which is a mix of old woods roads and footpaths over rolling terrain. Some ice near the start but these trails are 99% snow and ice-free. Also of note is the first 0.7 mi. of A Trail which is handicap-accessible!
