About Bullards Crossing Parking Area
The Hinsdale Flats Wildlife Management Area is an exceptional area along the East Branch of the Housatonic River. The WMA offers fish and wildlife habitat and extensive wetlands. Muddy Pond, located at the south end of the area, is the headwaters of the Housatonic River. The WMA offers hunting opportunities for turkey, white-tail deer, black bear, waterfowl, American woodcock, ruffed grouse, and Ring-necked pheasants. Fishing in the Housatonic is also an option, and anglers may get sunfish, perch, bass, pickerel, and trout. For those who want to do some paddling, canoes and kayaks can be launched from an informal access point on Bullards Crossing Road. Paddlers may need to cross a few beaver dams, but that adds to the adventure.
Parking is available on Bullards Road near an old home site.
