| Comments: |
Walk up the private road about 50 yards to a small boulder on the right. You can see the first blazed tree just in from there. Trail starts out fairly level, zigzagging through the woods. Ice patches started about .1 mile in. Trail begins to climb and becomes quite steep. There are ropes along the trees for a good portion. Although we didn't make use of them, they look like they would hold you. Did grab onto a few trees. Soon reach a ledge at which point the trail turns right and follows the ledges to the wooded summit which is marked with a large cairn. |
