The postholed trail to Ladd Mountain
Route: Unknown trail
Trail has been beaten up badly by postholers. Unfortunately, the postholes have since set up with the cold weather. I attempted to snowshoe, however it was simply too beat up to attempt (unless bushwhacking around the trail), so I had to do my best to bareboot up the postholes. Will probably avoid until temperatures warm up again and perhaps snowshoes can then repair damage. Snowpack is probably about 18".

Directions to trailhead: Take Route 104 East from I-93 in New Hampton. Shortly after passing Wickwas Lake on the right, take a right onto Meredith Center Road. Shortly thereafter, take a right onto Chemung Road. A few minutes later, take a right to stay on Chemung Road (where Camp Waldron Road goes straight). Awhile after the road turns to dirt, Randlett Pond will be visible on the right. On the left, there will be a blocked off logging road with limited room for parking. The trail starts on the logging road.
