Drove up the Cog Base road sat. with the intention of climbing Monroe. I haven't been on the A/R trail for years, so I could not remember where to hook up with the trail. Passed the "new" unplowed, untracked summer T.H. and parked next to one other car in the lower cog lot. I could'nt see any signs for the trail but there was a snowshoe track angling off into the woods behind the cars. I figured this would lead to a blazed trail. Duhh. Followed this bushwack for about 1/4 mile until it dead-ended. Duhh. Back to the lot, spent some time searching for the trail or a sign here and around the upper lot. Now I'm feeling real dumb because I know it has to be close by, but... no signs or snowshoe tracks were found. Finally gave up and went to Plan B, a hike up Eisenhower via the super high-way also known as the Crawford path.
Soooo.... at the risk of embarrassing myself, I have to ask. Could anyone tell me where I went wrong. I plan to go back in March and I don't want to repeat. Could someone please explain in detail, from the lower lot how to proceed to the A/R trail? Thanks, Stu
