Looking down the Bald Knob Trail
Route: John F. Woodhouse Trail, Old North Groton Road, Eliza Remick Road, Bald Knob Trail, (Bald Knob), Bald Knob Trail, Eliza Remick Road, Old North Groton Road, John F. Woodhouse Trail
Trails basically had a dusting of snow on them. A few minor patches of ice easily avoided. No traction needed today.
Decent sunset, but had to listen to the Spanish Imposition (Groton Wind Farm).

The sunset as seen from Bald Knob
Directions to trailhead: Take Route 3A south from Plymouth. Just prior to reaching Newfound Lake, taken a right onto North Shore Road. Continue straight through Hebron onto Groton Road. Once in Groton, bear right onto North Groton Road. The Cockermouth Forest - John F. Woodhouse Trail sign will eventually be on the right. Follow that dirt road to the gate - there is minimal room for parking adjacent to the gate. The John F. Woodhouse Trail is the logging road behind the gate.
