The wild forest also has access of Lows Lake & Hitchins Pond Primitive Area for those looking to explore the area.

Road Crosses Railroad Tracks

This is where the weird hair-pin turn appears on maps at the end of NY 421. I'm not sure why it follows this route, as the terrain is flat, but maybe at one time there was an inholding or private home located in here.

Other End of Lake

This is where NY 421 first hits the lake, heading west on NY 421 from Mountain Camp. You could say that it's other tip of the Horseshoe. About 3 campsites, spaced 1/2 mile apart, are located on the lake.
