Overview
Huxley Lake is a secluded lake in the Roaring River drainage that is reached via a steep trail that descends from Abbot Road (FR 4610). In the past, the area was heavily frequented by ATVs, but wilderness designation has seen a slow recovery of the little-hiked trails here. A longer hike will allow you to connect with the even steeper Grouse Point Trail, which drops precipitously to the Roaring River Crossing . There are no views: the attraction here is the area’s remoteness: be warned that the Grouse Point Trail is a mere scratch in the ground and is irregularly maintained by volunteers. Only do the longer hike if you have good stamina (The exertion on this hike is on the way back!) and are experienced at following abandoned trails.
