This trail follows a restricted access road from the South Branch of the Grass River to Chair Rock Flow. It shortens the distance to Dog Pond to 3.4 miles. This short trail runs from Hedgehog Bay to Hedgehog Pond. This trail runs from East Inlet to Curtis Pond. This 107,230 acre area lies between Cranberry Lake and Stillwater Reservoir and contains some of the best remote wilderness in the Adirondack Park.
Trails are mostly in the northern part, leaving much of the area trailless.
The remoteness of the area and heavy beaver activity provide more rugged trail conditions than on the Cranberry Lake Wild Forest to the north. This trail begins at the parking lot on the South Shore Road in the Hamlet of Wanakena at the start of the Dead Creek Flow Trail. The first two miles follow the bed of a logging railroad constructed by the Rich Lumber Company prior to state acquisition of that parcel in 1919. In the mid 1930's, it was upgraded to a truck trail for state administrative use. It is now used only as a foot trail, in conformance with wilderness management guidelines.
