Some might be unfamiliar with this trail. It's located at the southeastern corner of the Nash Stream Forest. The trailhead is accessed from Route 110 by taking Bell Hill Road (east of Stark) and going across the railroad tracks, and then turning left onto Percy Road and taking it for about a quarter mile. Look for a gated road with a small "CT" sign on the left. The "CT" stands for the Cohos Trail.

This trail was in great shape. There were no blowdowns of any significance. As might be expected at this time of year, there were a few sections of trail with moderate-size patches of mud and standing water (all of which were easy to traverse, or walk around). Regarding snow, at the upper end of the trail there were just a few small patches which were easy to avoid or simply walk through them.

There are some photos and more narrative about this hike on my Blog (click HERE).
