Quaker Pond Trail is an easy cross-country ski route of about 1.6 miles in a out-and-back shape, set on County of Monroe Parks Land in New York. The trail rises just 11 feet from its start, with a high point of 663 feet and a low of 640 feet, and the steepest stretch comes within the first 0.06 miles at a 12% grade. The county manages the land, and the trail is about 0.8 miles long one way. Winter is the season for skiing here. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show January highs around 39°F with lows near 16°F, while February runs slightly colder at about 37°F. The station sits a few hundred feet lower than the trail, so temperatures on the route run a little cooler. Dogs are not allowed on this trail. Other cross-country ski routes lie close by, including Devil's Bathtub Trail about 0.4 miles away and Southern Meadow and Grasslands Trail each about 0.5 miles off. For a hike, Fern Valley Trail is roughly 1.6 miles away.
