SW Peak Rain Mtn, Brown Benchmark
After bagging Moose Mountain, I drove up Caribou Bog Road until the barricade at ~2350'. I followed the road until I could see the SW Peak of Rain Mtn in front of me and followed wide open woods and moose paths to the summit. I encountered more of the same conditions until the Canadian border and Brown Benchmark (North). The woods were thicker right near the summit but there was an obvious moose path that was essentially a trail. I followed the valley NE of the peak until I came out at an old logyard and followed the road back to the truck. |
