Ponderosa and Ridge Loop

The Ponderosa and Ridge trails connect to make a 1.1 mile moderately looped trail within the Stratton Open Space park.  This is a great toddler led or carrier hike.  There are stairs to climb up and down, it is partly shaded, and there are other connecting trails to make your hike longer if desired.  This trail can get muddy and icy during the winter months, so bring sturdy shoes.  Little hikers can have fun jumping in the muddy puddles. You will encounter mountain bikers and hikers with dogs.  This trail is not stroller or wheelchair friendly.  Dogs are allowed, but must be leashed.
