Comments
Comments: The views on the Algonquin trail exceeded my expectations. Especially toward Welch-Dicey and Sachem peak. Trail is either very steep or flat. Bennett st trail is more moderate but no views. Flat Mtn doesn't have too much to offer but Guinea has several nice beaver ponds and a couple of open fields with views.
