Madison County, NY 📍

Another of the very nice set of eight campsites up on Cherry Ridge. If it weren't for the dang snow, I certainly would have been camping up here!

I am pretty sure this is a bear print, via it's size and general appearance. There was a lot of bear prints up here, unfortunately I did not get a very good shot.

Up on Cherry Ridge. Nice campsites with picnic tables, fire rings, and a set of two outhouses off of the loop. Looks like a place I definitely want come back and camp in nicer weather, possibly on a trip out to the Finger Lakes or Pennsylvania.

Brown Road and Truck Trail 8, near the Cherry Ridge Camping Area. While it's great that it was plowed all the way back here -- to provide access to a private inholding, there was no way to reach Cherry Ridge. I was disappointed, although the camping down at Moscow Hill Camping Area wasn't that bad.

I would have had to driven up the unplowed Truck Trail Number 8 to have reached the Cherry Ridge Camping-area. While the snow and ice was well packed where the snowmobiles had been driven, and I had a snow-shovel, I decided I would not risk getting stuck.
