 | Comments: |
The Wildcat River Trail was a great trail off the normal routes. It was well maintained and had some of everything to look at. Near the top at the Carter Notch Hut was the “Ramparts”. This is a great rock field with amazing views.
The Wildcat Ridge Trail was exhausting. Almost the entire trail is steep up, or steep down. From D to Rt 16 is some of the hardest/steepest 2 mile stretches in all of the White Mountains.
Overall a great hike. |
