We couldn’t even make it past the trailhead, several jeeps were getting citations on their way out, they have local police/park, ranger, patrolling, and when I asked, they said that it is a road, but you’re not allowed to drive on it. They don’t have any signage, saying that, I don’t know what grounds they have to establish that, but they said that you’re not supposed to drive there and even though you can drive a vehicle up there it’s not open for vehicular traffic. Kind of stinks because everything led to me believing that this was just a standard forest road that is open for driving

This is a rather mild trail with a couple rocky spots. A small section of Wakefield pond rd, and the Munyon where the power lines cross. Nothing that a stock jeep on street tires cant handle though (thanks AVIS!). There are lots of interconnecting roads and trails, plenty to spend half or whole day exploring.

This was a great trail. I explored for a few hours. A lot of turn off spots if you come as a group. Will definitely come back after a good rain storm.

First time out and this was fantastic for me as a confidence builder! Rocks to crawl over, lots of puddles, some steep inclines as well as some narrow trails. I don’t have a loft so I needed a spotter in one area to get over a large boulder but it was a-ok. Great time out.

Came here in a stock GX470, lots of ice and frozen puddles, was a great introduction to off-roading. Lots to explore.

Had a great time checking this trail out. Stayed mainly on the main trail, but there were lots of offshoots. I was new to the area so I didn't explore too much. Will be headed back next time to explore.

Anyone know if there's large obstacles in the first like 3 huge water pools literally at the start of the trail? Tried to go today but was alone and didnt want to risk anything 2 hours from home

Plenty of trails, mix of mud trails, gravel and mild rock climbing. I used the Baker Road entrance but found another on Rhode Island side at 41.962239N ,-71.775220 W, and this was marked with a big sign saying all welcome but leave place as you found it. Drove from MA and it was worth it.

Went for the first time this past Saturday. Don't use the 2 Norman Ave address. Car GPS and Google maps kept taking me to another town a few miles away. Use the Baker Road address. Lots of trails here. Went in on the main Baker Trail and took my first right. Have no idea where I was but popped out on the power lines. Followed them for a bit and a trail off of it and ended up at another entrance in Pascoag, RI. Definitely will be back to explore more.

I've been exploring these trails all year. I made a couple YouTube videos of the main trail. Here is a complete video of the main trail played at x2. https://youtu.be/TTe0HnR3Vqo

Had a blast exploring these trails!! First time going so I decided to stay on the main trail. At the first four way, I elected to go right and I’m glad I did. Scenic, and tight in some spots. Went about 20 minutes in and it starts to get more challenging as you go. Finally reached the first hill challenge which you will see off to your left and I was in my glory!! Did the hills and moved on. Another 15-20 minutes further down, staying on the main trail, I came to another awesome rocky hill cluster. Spent the next 90 minutes going up and down trying new lines. Finished up and continued forward. Made a nice little loop back with a trail that connected in from the power lines. I’ll Definitely be back. So much more to explore

Definitely recommend this spot to them 4x4! It's got mud, small ponds, sand dooms, and rocky roads to climb. Just make sure you're ready to spend hours on them trails cause its definitely easy to get lost in! Gas line trail is another spot to go in and give yourself a good challenge! Enjoy it cause its definitely worth it!

The trail is easy to get to off Quaddick Farm Road. It starts as a named dirt/fire/forest road with intersecting roads. There are some moderate challenges to start. The deeper you go. The more intense. As stated, it easy to get lost. You can find your way to a gas line trail. Some super hard core stuff there. I don't know if there is another way out. Usually gas line trails are blocked at roads. But sure is a lot of fun. I ended up doubling back, so I was sure to get out. Next time I will plan for a longer day with more exploring!!!
