Wheeler brook trail was in good shape from Little Larry Road to the height of land. Be careful not to miss the left hand turn (arrow) off of the grassy logging road. Quick and straight forward bushwhack to a shoulder slightly south of the top. Realizing that we had overshot the highpoint, we headed north a couple hundred yards up to the jar. After signing in we headed back roughly the same way. From the height of land, I headed down to rt. 2. The main crossing was a bit tough because of all the rain this morning. Great mid-day hike. |
