 | Comments: |
The trails all the way to Mt Roberts are old woods roads and are never steep except for a short section of Faraway Mt Connector. The trail down from Mt Roberts is a typical New Hampshire hiking trail; rocks and roots. All trails were dry, no mud. There are signs at all intersections except for the spur trail to Faraway. No views from Faraway but Roberts has views to the north with better views on the ledges below the summit. We only saw 2 people until the summit of Roberts, then 8 more. |
