Comments
Comments: revisited this route to Speckled, really like the view from the scattered ledges and of course the summit...also a former fire tower for Maine...WMG description right on for directions to trailhead and of course trail itself...just a patch or two of old ice approaching summit...really windy early on lots of falling small debris had to watch it!!
