Sky Pond State Forest and vicinity in New Hampton - overlooking Lake Winona. I came in the hard way, up the hill from the S side on a very washed out old road. Topped out and found the loop I was looking for - a nice trail. Partly recently used logging trail and sections that I assume had been logging trail, but that had been smoothed out and seeded with grass. Explored some side trails - short spur out to the ledges overlooking the lake, a couple others that ended up in clearings, some that just sort of petered out and one that headed down the hill on the N side with a No Trespassing sign about 300 m down.
Some really thick stuff - newer growth from a cut maybe 10 years ago - plenty of nice open as well.
