For Dave and any others wanting to hike this trail along the Octararo: Approaching the dam on Rt. 1 from Cecil, turn left on 222 just before the dam. Go past Moores Rd. Immediately after you cross the creek on the first bridge, look for a small pull off. This is the entrance to the trail, really only room for one car here.
