 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
There is designated hiker/skier dirt/grass parking along the SE edge of the Stewardship Center fields. This would be the right field foul territory for the little baseball field. There is clear signage for Pike Glades from rt 25 and Google Maps is spot on with its "Pikes Glades" location. |

Champ had fun harassing a porcupine right around the fancy cabin. Dad was relieved Champ didn't get quilled again - maybe he actually learned from last time? |

I write this mostly to add the parking info.
From the parking 'lot' we crossed the baseball field and around the pond to get to the bridge, then followed the very well maintained road to the fancy cabin. Road becomes more of an atv trail from this point to the summit, but easy to follow and good footing throughout. Bunch of logging activity and recent development in this area. Would have been lovely to drive up to the fancy cabin if not for the 'no unauthorized motor vehicles' sign at the bridge. 90 min round trip, with some excellent views of Black Mt on the descent - we waved to a certain vert monster over there. |
