I hadn't been to this map since the new data became available. So I wanted to check it out since I had good memories. Not disappointed at all.
It felt like classic Pocono-style orienteering: healthy amounts of blueberry--but not too much--wide open oak forests with way too much visibility, denser sections of white pine with very little visibility, all topped off with loads of cliffs and some areas of crazy rocky ground. There was just enough of each part to make it a challenge but not a pain.
In general the navigation was far too easy. I was able to see the cliffs and contours from +200m away. But this is the perfect place for an interval session or a night-o.
For anyone who wants to go: you need to take the "trail" from the parking lot to the state forest. There is no trail for the first 150m, only extremely faint yellow blazes. After that there are some ATV trails with faint yellow blazes. You also need to walk through a marsh immediately north of the parking lot. But the terrain is worth the pain of getting to it.
