    Clues for Your Hike

    1. Park in the “Middle Creek WMA Boat Launch Parking Area” off of Millstone Road; you will know you are in the correct parking area if you see the Middle Creek Reservoir directly in front of you as you park.
    2. From the parking area, walk down the paved path; you will pass the water, boat launch area, and park sign on your left before seeing the sign for Deer Path Trail on your left.
    3. Follow the trail as it winds about throughout the forest, walking on wooden planks, crossing streams, and following white blazes as you go.
    4. Once the trail opens up into a grassy area, walk toward the picnic tables, and the post will be nearby.
    5. To return to your car, turn around and retrace your steps, following the trail back through the forest, and back to the parking area near the boat launch.
