 | Comments: |
Trail well packed out, easy to follow, marked with yellow tape on the LT About 1/2 mile from summit, trail enters onto ski slope. Stay to right of ski trail all the way to summit chair, where the trail re-enters the woods and the summit of Ellen is a short distance from here. Easy day hike with challenges of avoiding skiers on Sugar Bush trail. |
