| Comments: |
Out and back from the Stony Brook Trailhead. Because my altimeter read 4040 on the high ledges on the south side of Moriah, followed by a descent we were almost fooled to think the ledges were the summit. Coming from the south, the summit is up a very steep climb (need to use hands) at the junction of the Carter-Moriah trail and the Kenduskeag trail. Great views. |
