Charles Baker State Forest

Charles Baker State Forest is named after the first District Forester who administered it. This property totals over 9,400 acres in southeast Madison County and makes up the core area for the Brookfield Trail System. This highly acclaimed horse and snowmobile trail system has over 130 miles of trails set throughout three state forests (Charles Baker State Forest, Brookfield Railroad State Forest, and Beaver Creek State Forest) that make up the Brookfield unit management area. These three forests collectively provide 13,750 acres of public reforestation lands for multiple recreation purposes.

Horse Stalls

Up in the Assembly-area. Somebody asked me to take some pictures for them when I was up there, so I thought I show them ...

Campsite 4

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!

Bear Print

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.
