| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Mittersill Hiking Trail is blazed occasionally but unmarked from Mittersill Chairlift. This hiking trail is rumored to be closed due to ski trail widening/construction on Mittersill but there were no signs restricting hiking. We just ascended via the best route through widened ski trails and bulldozed access road. |

Absolutely terrible. Black flies. Voracious!!!! Focused at about 3000' and above. Luckily, there was a breeze on the summit so they weren't too bad there. I got a free ankle bracelet of bites at my sock line - SWEET!!!! :( |

EXCELLENT hike with Hiker Ed & Hiking Guy - very fun day!!!! Terrific views! Recent logging on MIttersill for ski trail widening - will be nice to ski there if it isn't restricted to racing full time. Crowded at summit and excellent odors of fried food - YUMMY!! Gotta love a 4K with a bar on top!!!! |
