Comments
Comments: The best viewpoint is at Zeacliff (sign for view on the Twinway). Other views from ledge areas on the Zealand Ridge and views of Guyot and the Twins through the trees on the Zealand spur trail and at summit.

Saw snowshoe hare at Zeacliff and water fowl in Zeacliff Pond.

Joe Pie Weed, Cotton Grass, and Goldenrod. Blueberries, bunchberries, and either witherod or nannyberries.

Caretaker at Zealand Falls hut.
