 | Comments: |
I was able to take woods roads up to a point only a couple hundred feet below the col. I walked the gated road, making a key left turn towards the brook. I followed roads of variable quality that severed best directionally. Just below the col, I bushwhacked up to the col and then the north peak. The going to the north peak was steep with a few thick spots. The highpoint is recognized. I continued to the south peak. There are some nice views from near the recognized highpoint. The ME Delorme Gazetteer shows the road approach with fair accuracy. |
