Does anyone have any ideas where I can get a map for the trails on Harvey Mt and Bald Mt? These mountains are located between Austerlitz, NY and W. Stockbridge, MA.

Thanks for any assistance!:)
 
Some info...

The State bought this parcel of land a few years ago.

Harvey Mountain State Forest
Access: East Hill Rd (off Rt 22, near the I-90 B-3 Exit), Austerlitz
(State Forest Ranger C. Dicintio 518-828-0236)

Also, ADK led a hike there two years ago...

Harvey Mt., Class C+3C

Betty Lou Bailey, 355-0604

This recent NYS purchase is the highest point in Columbia County, easily reached from Thruway Exit B3. Short vegetation on the summit (such as grass, blueberries) means superb views from a wide area. Trails used are old woods roads, some with blazes. About 4 miles R.T., 500’ of ascent.
 
Harvey Mt.

I hiked this mountain last week. There is a picnic table on top that has "Harvey Mt." and the elevation emblazoned on it. There is a wide open/grassy area at the summit - which isn't the actual high point - a minute's walk away. At that point there are only views of only the trees. Another minute gets you to the Massachusetts line.

The trail is now well-defined with red trail markers.
