i'll be there
Here is a detail map of the West Rocks trails.
West Rocks trails map 

Does anyone know that access road shown on the map is open? The parking area is just under the power lines, not ideal to operate from. 
The Forest Loop looks like it's abt 300m from the parking lot. Maybe better to get away from the power lines. Any thoughts?
This road, by the looks of the map , is the same one OSR is on .... , Con 3 Derby is open all year.

Another change in venue for GBARC POTA activation. Due  to limited access to West Rocks CA, the  activation site will be Hepworth MA CA-5663. Still happening on Thursday, July 31. 
Thanks to Tom and checking the site for the activation. 
Looking forward to another GBARC activation.
Here are some details, the Hepworth Management Area is just east of Hepworth on Hwy6
