Success Pond Rd. in Winter

[JustJoe]

OK. So I did a quick search of this topic and came up with this conclusion. Success Pond Road is open in winter. I couldn't find out in the threads i found, if it's plowed. So, is it plowed usually? I assume after a storm, it might take a few days. The main thing is the gate. It is open in winter, correct? I have a quite capable 4WD truck with winch and chains. Considering giving Mt. Success a go sometimes this winter.

Thanks

I see some winter reports for Mt Success over the years on New England Trail Conditions. (NETC).

My understanding is that it's been getting plowed in recent years. Not sure how quickly that happens after a storm though.

As far as I know it's only gated in spring for mud season.

A few years ago I met a woman on a hike; she and her husband own one of the cabins out by Success Pond. She shared that her husband and another neighbor plow the road at their own time and expense. It is not treated, so studs or chains are a great idea.
