| Comments: |
Great 6.5 mile out back/loop with plenty of spectacular views and limited climbing (only 1266 ft elev. total). We saw a nice healthy looking moose just after the turn onto Round Pond Trail from the Gilford East Trail. He or she checked us out for a minute and then leisurely trotted off in the opposite direction. |
