Comments: What a beautiful trail!!! No power lines to fight my way through this way!!!!

Terrific afternoon hike on this gem. Beautiful woods walk and wonderful views from summit. We didn't wear traction but it might be recommended when you get onto the jagged summit(s) - you could see tracks where a bear must have slid down the steep sections!!! There was about 4-5" crusty snow but in some places under the hemlocks, there was bare ground.
