Town: Newtown
Location: Upper Paugussett State Forest
Trail(s) Ridden: Poly Brody Fire Road and Upper Gussy
How did you use the trail?: Mountain Biking
What was the time of day?: Early Morning
Duration (Hours)?: 2 Hours
Distance (Miles): 6+
Condition of Trail: Good, still some snow in places but rideable. Really icy on the Brody Road near the split. If it warms up, then it will be too sloppy to ride. Only ride if temps are below 32* F right now.
Encounters & Observations: Encountered a lot of blown down twigs and branches that I cleared. The new benching next to the Log Ride Short (YouTube Video) had been purposely blocked by a hiker/hunter. The individual actually broke a sapling to block the trail. Using my collapsible saw I made short work of the blockage and reopened the trail. Also, there have been no new ATV incursions on the Gussy Trail. Also, there was another tree down, atop another, in the back part of the Gussy which required a little more up-and-over work. Now it is much more rideable.
