Rail Trail - West Alton, Minge Cove

Not sure, it appears to be public land along the old West Alton railway right of way. Almost certainly not private. Clearly marled hiking and snowmobile ROW.

If it is public, it should be marked with a red sign with several uses.
That would be contacting DOT to determine easement/ownership and availability of what is down.

If it is just signed for snowmobiles and hiking, more likely private land.
Snowmobile club or BoT should have the landowner and contact information on file.
