There are two locations for parking when riding the Redback/Hutchinson trails in Sterling forest.
Redback starts at the South Parking lot, South Gate and Buttonwood Rd, Tuxedo GPS 41.176069, -74.226615, Hutchinson starts at North parking lot, Long Meadow Rd GPS 41.207292, -74.239747. It's still an out and back run. The trails meet in the middle.
The Redback trail head is a few hundred feet lower than the Hutchinson trail head on the Long Meadow side, but the trail rides equally well in both directions. If you have a shuttle ride the trail starting at Long Meadow.
The Munsee Eagle trail which is currently under construction forks off both trails about 1/4 mile into the woods from either end. This trail, when complete, will make the ride into a loop that is just under 8 miles long.
