Going up to Bear Mountain Memorial day weekend for my first wilderness camping experience. Anyone familiar with walking from the Manitou station? https://www.google.com/maps/@41.32933,-73.9670299,17z

I was wondering if you can cut through the small gap from Manitou woods road to Bear Mountain highway or do I need to go all the way down Manitou station road.

Don't want to cut through anyone's yard :-P
