Comments
Comments: The two trails I took up and down Gorham Mountain were bone dry and in great shape. Some really nice panoramic views from just below Gorham's summit. The Cadillac Cliffs Trail, rated as strenuous by the National Park Service, did indeed have some tricky sections. They were fun, though! Nice little area.
