Six Miles to Horseshoe Lake

This is the turn off for NY 421, one of the strangest state highways in the state. It is a dead ended highway, that leads to gravel roads around Horseshoe Lake and Bog River Flow. It is very twisty and narrow, and portions have not been resurfaced in over 50 years.

Marshy

Portions of Hitchens Pond are quite marshy, and can be tough going, especially if one gets out of the channel.
