Cohen Road.
Cohen Road is a short 0.2-mile connector that likely serves as a local access route or neighborhood path rather than a backcountry trail. At this length, it's more of a quick link between points than a destination hike. Check local maps or town records if you're trying to determine where it leads or what it accesses.
