Finishing up the trails around Moosilauke today. Ran a NEO40 Meetup hike. Great way to get to the summit. No other hikers on this trail today. Saw a few thru hikers on the summit. Not a busy day, we summitted about 11:30 and there were maybe 20+ people enjoying the sunshine. This is a nice hike. Tunnel Brook Road from the lot is an easy walk, some washed out culverts and re-routes and crosses a logging road. Benton is a steady not steep climb. A few nice viewpoints on the way up. |
