Great hike along the Bigelow Range, the Horns Pond Trail up to the A.T. is a real gem. The trails were in great shape and have easy to moderate grades most of the way with a few steep sections mixed in with rocky footing here and there. Great views from the summits along the way. Nice hike with Whitney leading the way :) |
