| Comments: |
I went south on the M-S Greenway, following a single set up human boot tracks, and a single set of dog paws. After the large cleared area, about 0.6 miles in, the trail turns left to follow an old farm lane; I turned right and followed that until it did a 90 degree righthand bend, then I just kept going straight. It was easy to aim for the summit, since the woods are open and I could see it the whole time. On my return trip, I followed the rough cleared track north from the summit along the "no hunting beyond these signs" signs, until it came out on the driveway to a private camp. Then I followed a stone wall through the woods across the driveway from where I popped out, which eventually ending up in the previously logged clearing area with nice views of the king of the south, Monadnock. |
