Comments
Comments: 4 hikers from Fellowship of the Tortoise did the 4.2 mile hike with a few stop and lunch at the top in 4 hours. We ate just before the summit on the Alton Bay side because there was 2 school buses of kids at the top and the wind was also coming off the lake. Once at the top winds were about 25-30 mph and we only spent a few minutes up there before heading down.
