    @994door I believe Sandwich notch should still be open, not positive on Tripoli. Sandwich notch is closed for "winter" but only time ive seen it closed off is when there is snow on the ground. Tripoli says online that it is open mid may-october but doesn't specify if its open through October or until October. I just drove Tripoli 2 weekends ago and it was absolutely packed with Hikers and campers which makes me think it could have been one of the last weekends open possibly, or just people like me driving around to look at trees:notsure: If your in the area eastern corner is a solid drive too, little more rugged of a trail than the other 2 and all within 25 minutes of eachother

    I was up there the 18th-20th, we did Tecumseh and then Beede falls. Camped off Tripoli road, I thought I saw a sign that said Closed November through June, rather than Open until October or whatever. I'll have to check it out - Was planning to go up there for camping in a few weeks so I'll have to make sure that it's still open :D

    @taco-houla you're probably right then with those dates, i trust the sign at the trail more than my quick google search haha. Is there driveable trails on Tecumseh or did you hike it?

    Hiked it, there was no driveable trail there. I do have a potential wheeling path/camp site nearby though need to investigate further.

    Went and did Old Florida Rd this morning with 2 buddies I haven't wheeled with since last year. Only took an hour and a half this time compared to the 2.5 hours last time. Then stoppedat the Hoosac Tunnel for a quick look. Didn't take any pics on the trail as we barely stopped except to do both step ups

    Here's a vid Dom got of me going up the 2nd step up, not the best quality. The step up is bigger than the vid makes it look

    Made it to Tripoli road today, family loved it. It got a bit late so we’ll go there tomorrow on the way to the other locations suggested.
