It's a nondescript dirt road with a tight entrance. Ernie usually puts a traffic cone or something at the end of it. It's on the side of a hill. |

The address is always wonky. Use the GPS location - 42°21'06.1"N 72°46'31.3"W Since you’re coming up from CT (my way), its a left turn into a dirt entrance just before a House, it’s after you pass the Shaw Rd junction when going west on Chesterfield Rd. We meet at the landing where the marker is on the map below:  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

OK. When I was looking at the map I thought that dirt road had something to do with it. Thanks guys! See you in the morning. |

Definitely not easy green, and definitely not Subaru friendly. |

This is what I got from Eddie. I’m not sure if anyone got a pic of Ernie on one wheel on the big ledge.

Hey just for my own reference...those trails in the pictures. Are those black or green? |

I’d say dark blue to impossible. Depending on the line you take. Ernie tried a particular line (in the pic) he put some extra skinny pedal into it and ended up with 3 wheels in the air. I think the whole hill was quiet for a heartbeat. I don’t know how he didn’t roll. A lot of skill and even more luck probably. Not to be tried without EVERYTHING protected. |

A dark green rig can do the whole thing no problem. It’s everything from extreme to moderate. |
