Trask and Paradise Roads

Trask Road, Sanctuary Farm, and Mount Sunapee

 

Trask and Paradise Roads are a one-mile continuous road that changes names from Sunapee to Newport.  Enter from Route 103 in Wendell (Sunapee) near Sanctuary Dairy Farm — a great place for ice cream.  The Newport end has a closed bridge. Trask is also known as Trask Brook Road.  Here is Trask Brook from the bridge near where I normally park. Watch out for poison ivy; there is a lot of it here.

I have found many species of birds right near this first bridge and most of the way to the closed bridge over the Sugar River.
