These small peaks at the top of Even's Notch (just west of the Roost) named as such on Peakbagger.
I hoped to find the abandoned Hastings trail that goes between these peaks. I started on a woods road leaving from the bridge over the Wild River. This felt like the Hastings trail, but instead of running me to the col, it put me on the south slope of Hastings trail Hill. I began to bushwhack up, finding steep going and spruce on both peaks, but nothing too bad. The Northwest highpoint on HTH is recognized, though one peakbagger report states that the other is bigger. The highpoint of 4 corners hill is recognized. Nice views along the way. Passing through the col twice, I did not find the trial. To return, I bushwhacked down to the River, crossed, and walked 113 back to the parking. |
