Vassar State Game Area: Hike Report

Vassar SGA

03/17/02

Hello!

I was at a conference in Frankenmuth at the end of last week and I just couldn't resist doing a little thumb tour. Of course, I was sick with this crazy virus that's going around and I couldn't hike very much.

That said, I did get a couple of miles in along the Cass River where it crosses M-46 (P.51 of Delorme's). It's in the Vassar SGA and is well-marked by, it appears, the Reese HS out-of-doors club. I really enjoyed the small section I hiked and wondered if anyone knows anything else about it. By my estimation, the contiguous Vassar and Tuscola SGAs are about 10,000 acres total - which put it on par with Waterloo or Pinckney Rec. Areas. Anyone have experience hiking this area?

Anyway, I was intrigued enough that I might head back up on a weekend in the summer. But I figured I'd ask for any local knowledge that might be on the board.

Thanks!
Mike
P.S. Beets are cool.
