Elderslie Preserve in Woodbridge
Checked this out because local scouts and the land trust are interested in creating a permanent course there. Parked on Peck Hill and took Red trail, then south on blue trail to bench, then back via blue trail to yellow trail. Mostly nice terrain and fairly open even now. Some very large boulders. Greener in the south. Didn't get to the lodge property but didn't see any large parking areas.
Also checked out the trailhead for Pine Hill which is water company land to the west of Elderslie and north of the Ansonia Nature Center map. Woods also look nice but no real parking, just a cul-de-sac.
