| Dog-Related Notes: |
They’d be fine but this place looked like rick heaven with tall grass |
|
| Bugs: |
Mosquitos were awful on the way up. Black flies too at the summit. I didn’t find any ticks on me which is extraordinarily surprising given all the grass on the road the trail follows. |

| Comments: |
The trail starts in the woods to the left of the sign. Don’t go up he ATV road to the gate. It’s not the trail and ya muddy as hell. The trail comes in right after it on the left. Much of the trail follows ATV roads with high grass. About 3/4 mile in look for a small cairn on the right that marks where the trail leaves the road and enters the woods. Great views to towards the Mahoosucs, Moriahs, Waumbek, Weeks, Cabot, and Percy’s from the summit of Mount Jasper. |
