This is one of the first things of real interest we ran into, and it’s actually not on the trail. When we ran into this we had gotten off track due to some confusing blazing around Summitwood drive. The blazes are unclear here and if you look at the map it looks like you go farther into the utility corridor than you actually do, you’re really walking right next to the road instead. While looking for the trail in the utility corridor we found this apparent party area, and we apparently also pissed a guy off by being on, or too close to, his property. Just as we got ourselves back on track we saw him staring at us with his game face on. So, for reference, the Summitwood road crossing at the utility corridor the immediate left is more immediate than it looks on the map, ignore the blazes that lead onto this guy’s property and instead follow the wooden fence in front of the utility corridor until you find blazes that lead you through a wooded right of way between houses and the road. Hope that’s clearer than mud, at least a little.
