I want to reach the Seth Warner by car via the Country Road. I begin my LT thru july 1st and my girlfriend wants to give me a lift but she cannot hike. So my question is: can we reach the Seth Warner, using the Country Road, by car? Who used this road lastly? What was its condition?
Thanks

The last week of May it was passable, no problem. Do not approach from Pownal. From Rte 100 in Stamford turn onto Mill Rd which forks left into County Rd. Trailhead parking for about 4 cars. Cin

I tried to do the same thing a couple of weeks ago. County Road gets more narrow as you progress to the end and there’s an area where you can park about .9 miles (East) from the AT/LT - good drop off point, but I don’t think I’d like to leave my car there overnight. You can continue, but it gets real narrow and there’s only room for one car passage at a time, one direction only. I did not go further, but there may be a spot for 1 or 2 cars if you care to venture further towards Seth-Warner; don’t know. I did not attempt this as I was running late and could not hike that day. I’m interested, myself, as to what lies beyond the apparent parking area (no sign, circular area, remnants of an open campfire) that’s about a half mile beyond the dirt road on the left (that goes to N.Adams).
