| Comments: |
At about the last half mile or so of Sabbaday Brook trail before reaching Mt Tripyramid trail. Trail is like "Mashed potatoes" very steep and took alot of effort to get up it. Bring your "Big" leg muscles LOL The Mt Tripyramid and Pine Bend Brook are snowshoe packed. Easier to traverse. |
