Comments
Comments: This one caught my eye from Cadillac, so I stopped by on my way to the other side of the island. From the junction of the entrance to Park Loop Road, I ascended the mostly open snow fields to the south summit, then followed some older snowshoe tracks through open woods to the summit, which also had good views (especially of Champlain, Cadillac, and Sargent). While there is no official trail on the maps for this peak, I suspect there could be something unofficial.
