Could use a few more signs on this side (west) but was still fairly easy to follow. Tricky on first open ridge as sign is down off the steep side. May be blazed on rocks in summer? |

Took the snowmobile sign at the first right which said Plymouth Mtn Trail. NOPE. Go up another 1/10 or so to the actual trail. Sign is up high on tree at the snowmobile trail sign. Started bare booting but quickly went to snowshoes. Needed the whole trip. Consolidated snow made for an easy trip. We followed an old trough which made it easy. Trail is signed with white signs that say "trail" and have a black "wolf" on them. Mowglis? Beautiful woods, with lots of tracks. Limited views but could still see Presi's, Franconia and lots out to the east (Belknaps, Ossipees's, Squam. Snow was softer on way back down and went in a couple of times. Great day out after a big day yesterday. Another trail (yellow blaze) comes in from the Plymouth side. |
