First time on Osseo Trail and Greenleaf Trail for me. Osseo is spectacular. Great woods walk before you get to the downlooks into the Pemi Wilderness. Then easily climbed ladders up the steep approach to Flume. Clear, crisp day along the ridge. The stretch between Liberty and Little Haystack is underrated. Greenleaf Trail was a nice woods walk below treeline. Was surprised to see the trailhead put us out on the on-ramp for Exit 34B on I-93, so use caution when returning to your car at the Cannon Tramway lot. |
