| Comments: |
Cadillac Mtn had much of the same qualities and features as Champlain Mtn did, but they were much better! Views included Great Hill to the north, Dorr Mtn, Champlain Mtn, The Beehive, and Gorham Mtn to the southeast, and Sargent Mtn to the west. The summit was crowded, but with some walking around, we found relative solitude. 4.4 mi roundtrip, 1,200 ft. gain.
Oh yeah, if you hike this one, bring strong sunscreen, as Cadillac is above treeline in many spots. |
