Travel to north VT, destination Craftsbury Outdoor Center 535 Lost Nation Rd, Craftsbury Common VT 05827. From Rt. 14 take a right turn at the "Craftsbury Outdoor Center 6 miles" sign onto the South Craftsbury Rd, or TH 1. Pass through the Craftsbury village, up a steep hill, through Craftsbury Common, past Sterling College and Craftsbury Academy. Approximately 0.75 mile past the Common look for a yellow curve sign followed by a sign that says Craftsbury Outdoor Center. Bear right and follow the signs from here to the Center. This is Mill Village Rd, and it takes a sharp turn to the left downhill to the base of a small dam overflow area. Continue straight on Mill Village Rd and then turn Right onto Lost Nation Rd, up a steep hill. After about 0.5 miles you will see a large Craftsbury Outdoor Center sign on your left in front of a white house. This is the Craftsbury Outdoor Center office.
