 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Was hoping to access the NKD/WhiteCap/Boundary peaks from Morton Cutoff but Tim Pond road is not drivable. East Kennebago was a nearby 2nd choice today. Drove in from "The Landing" (summer route). Active logging to 1820 Ft (almost made it to the summer TH) Sundays are recommended. |

A very easy 6.0 mile round trip win! Was stoked that I could drive the summer route to a logging landing at 1820 Ft. Followed solid Snowmobile corridor to the ATV trail. I guess Bullwinkle left his Tubbs at home as the trail is full of ankle twisting of 4 legged post holes. Bushwhack follows the property boundary for a short distance then follows a great line to the summit. Heavy breathing steep but highly recommended! An easy one today. |
