This 12,242-acre state forest, actually a combination of four neighboring forests, is so named because it is located entirely on the Tug Hill Plateau, an area that is renowned for its harsh winters and heavy snowfalls. This area is along the Inman Trail and is criss-crossed by cross country skil trails in the winter, many of which are nice trails for accessing the back country in the summer (the power line trail can be swampy in the summer).
