| Comments: |
the snowmobile trail up the swath had nice walking, but for some wet sags higher up. good views to the ossipees and a close up to israel up high. at the trails height of land on guinea hill i bushwhacked up to the summit in open mixed soft and hardwoods. the summit is recognized and has an old cairn on the highest point. i descended the same way.
