Trail Description:
The Brook Trail with its steep ledges is
more difficult than the Liberty Trail. It has
excellent views on the rocky ledges near the
summit of Mt. Chocoura. The trail can be
hazardous in wet or icy conditions. The trail
begins by following a gravel road beyond the
parking lot gate. The trail leaves he gravel
road on the right at .4-mile and follows south
of Claybank Brook. The trail passes to the
junction with the Bickford Path and
continues to the first ledge at 3.0 miles near
where the new Beeline relocation enters on
the left. The trail climbs the steep, open
ledges of the Farlow Ridge with Cairns and
yellow blazes to mark the way. The Liberty
Trail enters from the right at 3.4 miles with
the summit of Mt. Chocoura another .2 miles
via the Brook Trail.
