Features Commonly Backpacked · Fall Colors · Historical Significance · Wildlife

This section of the NET runs from Cooleyville to just below Sibley Swamp. From Cooleyville Road, the trail crosses over some bog bridges and enters the woods. In a ways, the main trail passes by an intersection where there's an alternate that may save some time. *While this area isn't signed well, the NET Alternate is shown on the NET paper map. Here, the trail mainly follows an old road. It reaches a junction, then turns left (following a snowmobile trail). It passes a cellarhole, near Gate Lane and continues past the NET Alternate. The trail ends at a sign for the next section, just below Sibley Swamp.
