The first 10 minutes from the parking lot are a bit muddy and could use some attention but once you begin to ascend, the trail is dry. This is a well groomed trail with almost no vegetation brushing against you as you hike to the summit. |

 | Comments: |
The published length of the Blueberry Mountain trail may indicate an easy/moderate hike. This is a wonderful trail but it is consistently steep and would be challenging for inexperienced hikers. Take your time, take breaks and enjoy this gem of a hike. From the summit on a clear day, you will have 360 degree views that include, Mt. Washington, the Tumbledown peaks, Saddleback Mt., Mt. Abram, Mt. Blue, Bald in Weld and beautiful Webb lake. Highly recommended and worth the effort. |
