Wolf Laurel Trail #57
The Wolf Laurel Trail leads from the Wolf Laurel trailhead to the Stratton Bald Trail. The Wolf Laurel Trailhead is located off Forest Service Road #81, seasonally closed from January 1-March 31.

From there, follow FSR 81F 4.8 miles past Swan Cabin to the parking area. These are all gravel roads, and may be impassible at times.
