TRAIL UPDATES: At the High Ponds Farm on the Rossier Road, trail users pass a small beaver pond on the right. At the next trail intersection, the trail to the left has been renamed "Dodge Trail" in memory of John Rodney Dodge (1873-1954). The Dodge Trail crosses over Flood Brook on a refurbished bridge (August 2022) and ascends to the junction with the Notch Trail. Turning right and going in a westerly direction on the Notch Trail, trail users traverse the base of Burnt Mountain, passing over a new bridge (August 10, 2021), and come to the junction with the Sunset Ridge Trail. Continuing straight on the Notch Trail, the upper corner of the High Meadow comes into view. From here trail users can descend via the High Meadow Trail to the Moosewood Ponds and the entrance to the High Ponds Farm. This 1.5-mile loop is described in the one-page "Suggested Routes". See the Trails page.
