Section 15: Route 73 to Widow's Clearing Trail

Snapshot:  
The old CT in Goshen on the power line right-of-way between Rte. 73 and Flora White Rd. is no longer maintained as CTA has identified a preferable route within the Green Mountain National Forest (GMNF). This new route is well flagged with pink flagging tape but has not been cleared or marked with blue, paw-print blazes, pending US Forest Service approval of the route. Between FR 224 and Widow's Clearing Trail, the CT follows the delightful, scenic, groomed trails of Blueberry Hill Inn and X-C Ski Center. 

Length:  9.3 miles

Difficulty:
The first third of this section is difficult because it is narrow and winding.  The trail is marked with pink flagging but has not yet been cleared. There are several un-bridged, tricky gullies.  Ski this stretch only if you are confident of your skiing and way-finding abilities. The rest of the route, on the groomed Blueberry Hill trails, traverses gently rolling terrain and is easy skiing.
