A brief connector maintained by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, this quarter-kilometer path serves as an approach segment within Cascade Mountain's trail system. Yellow rectangular blazes mark the route, which is understood to link other established trails rather than constitute a complete ascent in itself. Despite its modest length, the trail provides necessary access through terrain that would otherwise require bushwhacking or longer approaches.
Cascade Mountain Trail runs 0.2 miles (0.2 km) — an easy hike, nearly level throughout, about 5 minutes on the trail. NYSDEC maintains the route.
