what's the best winter parking for Buck? The Hogstown large lot? Or the lot a bit down the road towards the lake, nearer to the Buck trailhead? Is just the Dacy Clearing lot closed in winter/spring? Thanks!

I haven't been up there to check but I know Shelving Rock Road is closed as of March 2. Usually they close it just above where Hogtown Road goes to South Bay. That adds about a mile, or more, to your hike if you park at the gate. Just remember, locals, town and emergency vehicles need to be able to get through there so don't block the gate. Might be better off coming in from Pilot Knob.Life's short, hunt hard!

Drove into Hogtown early this morning. Good to go, town has done a good job on the road. Two weeks ago it was a muddy mess. Gotta believe it will be crowded. Road to Dacy is still closed. Please PM me if you see any turkeys!Life's short, hunt hard!
