This was an awesome loop hike to 2 peaks with amazing 360 views. I went up Mt Hunger first which I’m glad I did because it was very steep in sections… at times it reminded me of the Holt trail up Mt Cardigan… views were amazing, beautiful alpine zone with views in every direction. Had summit to myself, it was great. Then I continued down Waterbury trail for 0.2 miles to Whiterock trail. Beautiful 0.6 mile trail over to Whiterock Mt. Trail had beautiful moss and bog bridges, didn’t see a soul… very quiet and remote. Steep rock scrambling up to Whiterock Mt. Had summit to myself again… could see Mt Hunger’s summit filling up rather quickly. Headed back down and linked up with the Bob kemp trail which was very enjoyable and really cool with multiple stairs with railings which made for a quick decent. 7 mile loop with alpine exploring. Top notch hike…. Can achieve solitude most of the hike if start is early. |
