 | Comments: |
The ascent and descent through the Flowers’s is stunning. Be sure to turn for the views. Somehow we missed the pretty well trodsennpath early on up the ski slow and ended up flower/bushwacking, not sure how this happened since when we popped out later in the day the trail was quite obvious. This trail has magic because of the flowers and ALL of the sobo through hikers. We met 15! 20+people on trail in total on a Tuesday. Despite the haze, you can see forever. Maine’s 4ks don’t disappoint. |
