Did this as an overnight going up to Unknown Pond tent site the day before. Highly recommended as it makes for two easy days and make the drive north from Boston easier to manager across two days. As others (and the guides) have mentioned the trails are muddy but mostly able to rock hop around the rough stuff. Bunnell Notch Trail was part of a stream for a little while but nothing major. If you take this hike I suggest taking the time to visit The Horn. The views are great and the scramble to the top was enjoyable with some challenge. |
