A two-part plan proposed by the state Department of Transportation and Department of Recreation and Conservation would have extended the trail, which currently ends at a parking lot on LeCount Hollow Road, north to Wellfleet Hollow State Campground and then to a location on Route 6 near Cahoon Hollow Road.
