Southern Moose Mountains. Trails were all either old roads or snowmobile trails, but generally in good shape. Nice trailhead kiosk, but no hiking trail markings beyond there - having a copy of the map would be very handy due to a maze of old roads. Virtually no views from Phoebe's Nable Mountain, as trees have reclaimed the vista (perhaps when the leaves fall more can be seen). Piper Mountain vista ('C' marked trail off Piper Mountain Road at height of land, continue over highpoint, to end of trail) was nice. Nothing overly steep on any of the mentioned trails. A few old cemeteries along the way. Good foliage color around wet spots, but generally still not yet peak. |
