Summerhaven Use Area
Tuesday, March 24, 2020
| Other Names | Summerhaven Trails, Summer Haven Use Area, Sanford Road, Tyler Pond |
| Last Known Status | Closed For Season |
This area offers a well marked seven mile long trail loop with single and double track sections plus several side trails to explore. The terrain is mostly hardpacked with light elevation changes but expect to encounter several deep mud holes throughout the year. A section of the trail even winds near a nice picnic area overlooking Tyler Pond.
This trail system is open daily except during mud season (early spring) but call first since exact dates vary.
