| M17 May. 12, 13 | The Chestnut Lean-to, located in Danby State Forest (M17) between Bald Hill Road and Michigan Hollow Road, has been dismantled. Please do not camp on the former site as clean-up is still in progress. An informal bivouac area is located next to the stream just below the lean-to site. The privy behind the lean-to site is still in use, and will remain in place. The new Chestnut Lean-to will be constructed by the FLTC AlleyCat crew in June 2013. Check trail notices in late June for new lean-to status. - P. Warrender, Trails |
