This update applies to the August 2014 Stockport Section map.

This trail change alerts you to a condition that you may notice between Points 24 and 25 on your Stockport Section Map Edition of August 2014. Newburn Road or Drive, which connects Points 24 and 25, has been decommissioned. In addition, the road at the west end is blocked by logs with signs marked “Closed” or “Private.” There is no change in access, distance, or directions. However, because maintenance is no longer the responsibility of Morgan County and road conditions may deteriorate as a consequence, we added the coordinates of the two points and noted that the route crosses Goshen Run twice and an intermittent tributary once.

CW 47.8 NW | CCW 10.3 SE | Point 24 | Hoffman Rd (T55) at Newburn Rd

This intersection is located at 39.52438N, 81.89452W. Although Newburn Rd has been decommissioned, BTA has permission by easement to continue hiking along this road which follows Goshen Run. Exit Hoffman Rd. Head generally W on Newburn Rd. There are several fords along the road; Goshen Run (0.20 mi), an intermittent tributary to Goshen Run (0.30 mi) and Goshen Run ( 0.19 mi) again.

CW 48.7 N | CCW 9.4 E | Point 25 | Newburn Rd at Wood Rd (C53)
