| Comments: |
I had a bit of trouble finding start of the trail. To the right of the red open bay garage which is set back from the road (next to white house), follow the woods road as it descends and passes a junction with an older road branching right (stay straight). Descend a short distance further until you see a white blazed trail leaving right. Once on the trail, the footbed is not always clear, but the blazes are.
Easy footing all the way on the trail, with a couple of moderately steep sections. An excellent northeast / east vista from the ledges just beyond the summit, where the trail ends. There is a register at the ledges. The highpoint appears to be an uplifted ledge just off the trail, and is not recognized. |
