Go about 3.9 miles and look for a Hawk Mountain Road which tees in from the left. In the past there has been a gas station at the tee. 6. Left onto the Hawk Mountain Road and go about 4.9 miles. Look for a little bus stop shed on the left and turn left just before the shed onto Pine Swamp Road which is little more than a gravel drive going up the hill between two farms. 7. Go about 0.4 miles on Pine Swamp road, over the crest of the hill and look for a dirt road entrance to a game lands parking lot on the right. It's the second dirt road. We'll unload there. 8.
