Well maintained. Clear trail markers. Not a lot of ice (couple spots we slipped). Beautifully sunny day.
great fun, I recommend microspikes and poles with the packed snow and icy conditions.
Very 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
Very Muddy! The way point for the flame was slightly off follow the signs!
Completely muddy! But great trail. Pretty crowded by Eternal Flame.
Great trail. Challenging with lots of bobs throughout. Scenic. Very visible trail. Relatively dry.
Pretty good condition. A Saturday in November with crisp and sunny weather so quite a few people around.
Tough when muddy. A little tricky to find trail at some spots but good long hike.
Fairly wet, difficult markings to follow for first timers with fallen leaves
