Fun hike. If you are looking for views, I would suggest bagging the peak via the Walden trail which has two lookouts, one with excellent views of Mount Wonalancet, the other with views towards the Kanc. If you ascend the peak via the Dicey's Mill Trail, there is only one lookout. The trail is rough above East Loop on both the Walden and Dicey's Mill Trails, some erosion with wet rocks/roots, typical WMNF trail. Below East Loop, all trails were very easy. |
