This peak is on the 52wav list. There are two ledge spots as you approach the summit that have views towards the Pressies. But press on another .8 to the south summit ledges, where you will be rewarded with phenomonal, 180 degree views from Attitash, Sandwich Range, Tri's, Osceola's, Isolation, Carrigain, and more. Absolutely one of the best view spots I've seen in a long time. |
