Nothing is closed. I rode our regular trails plus some new-ones and every trail was open.

hey wilson or sotto (or anyone else who might know)

what was the address to the other staging area- the one that is located under the powerlines?

and- I remember there was a trail that claimed access to food / gas- but I thought I remember it was either for sleds only or only open in the winter season??? any idea?

Found the directions:
For those with gps- use the following address, which will put you within a couple hundred feet of the staging area-

112 Old Richmond Road, Swanzey, NH

or-

Rte. 190 N to Rte. 2 west to Rt 140 N and then merge onto Rt 12 N
Follow 12n into Troy, NH.
Pass through Troy town center, a few (miles??) up, look for Flat Roof Mill Rd. on left (towards Keene Motorsports)
Take left onto Flat Roof Mill Rd.- follow past Keene Motorsports (will be on your right) to a fork.
Bear left on to Old Richmond
Fire Pond parking (staging area) will be on your left maybe a mile or so up.

I'm going to be leaving my area around 8am to get there for 10. If my oldest son, Moose One, comes I'll have a trailer. If not, I'll load up in the back of my truck with ramps. I'm planning on bringing a lunch only because I'm diabetic and can't afford low blood sugar without something to eat in an emergency. (Doesn't happen much)

Not 100% sure about the #110 but it's really close to that...

The gas is only accessible in the winter.

Moose: The directions you gave are for the Fire Pond parking area. This is not an official parking area and there is no legal parking there.

The address CNC posted is the correct one. You will want to park at the Fish Hatchery parking area. Its a little more difficult to get to, but if the club wants us to park there, I'm inclined to obey their wishes.
