A sign at the lodge marks the trailhead and points one towards the novice double chair. Then the trail follows a road and makes a well marked turn. The trail was mainly easy to follow. I followed an access road past a gate to the west peak, which is the highpoint and has towers. Nice views of this hike of Weld area, mahoosucs, and more. |
