February 6, 2021Too snowy to find the trail head after a mile
January 31, 2021very nice ...Micro Spikes a must.
January 30, 2021Well maintained. Clear trail markers. Not a lot of ice (couple spots we slipped). Beautifully sunny day.
January 30, 2021December 21, 2020December 19, 2020great fun, I recommend microspikes and poles with the packed snow and icy conditions.
December 13, 2020Very muddy and be prepared for stream crossings without bridges. Chestnut Ridge never gets boring because there is so much to explore. I went off trail for a bit so my recording isnt very accurate for the last quarter or so
December 5, 2020Very Muddy! The way point for the flame was slightly off follow the signs!
November 29, 2020Completely muddy! But great trail. Pretty crowded by Eternal Flame.
November 29, 2020Muddy
November 25, 2020November 14, 2020Great trail. Challenging with lots of bobs throughout. Scenic. Very visible trail. Relatively dry.
November 14, 2020Pretty good condition. A Saturday in November with crisp and sunny weather so quite a few people around.
November 10, 2020November 9, 2020November 8, 2020October 31, 2020Tough when muddy. A little tricky to find trail at some spots but good long hike.
October 26, 2020How do you make a correction to the map. One spot on the blue trail is wrong/confusing and takes you off the trail to the inner loop paved road making it hard to get back on the trail.
October 25, 2020October 23, 2020Fairly wet, difficult markings to follow for first timers with fallen leaves
October 22, 2020October 17, 2020October 5, 2020October 4, 2020I often do just parts of the trail. Each section has it's own beauty and experience.
October 4, 2020September 26, 2020Solid day on the trail. Definitely planning to come back soon!
