Comments: Finished my 52WAV list on North Percy yesterday. Beautiful weather, awesome views and really nice trails. The steeps up to the col between the Percys was as steep as advertised, very fun and fast elevation gain. Gorgeous views from both summits. North Percy slabs were nice and dry, blazes and cairns were easy to follow. Excellent summit to wrap up my list on. Hiked the rest of the loop, visited the tent site and hiked out the wide, leisurely final portion of the loop trail. All the leaves are down and the views up through the North Country are beautiful and wild through the bare trees.

2.5 hour drive to the trailhead, but I'd honestly do it again.

Awesome day.
