TA Report: Upper Paugussett State Forest & Dingle Brook Trails



Date of Activity: 12/5/09
Trail Ambassador Name: Mark Lurie
Trail Ambassador Email: eatsleepfish@gmail.com
Town: Newtown/Brookfield
Location: Upper Paugussett State Forest, Dingle Brook Trails
Trail(s) Poly Brody Forest Road, Lake George ROW, Blue Trail
How did you use the trail?: Mountain bike riding
What was the time of day?: Early morning
Duration (Hours): 2
Distance (Miles): 8
Condition of Trail(s): Dry for the most part but the Lake George ROW is muddy in a lot of places and sports some quite large mud holes now.
Observations: If you aren't wearing blaze orange on a Saturday where there is active hunting, you are taking your life into your hands. Came across three different groups of hunters, two in Upper Paugussett and another big group on Pond Brook Road. Except for the Lake George ROW, trails are nice and dry.

I armored one little section on a mud hole bypass.
