| Comments: |
I followed Sawyer to where it passes close to Birch Hill and bushwhacked to the recognized summit in young hardwoods. Birch Hill was totally worth the revist. I cut north to avoid the cliffs and then east to hit the forest road leading down Rob Brook. Met Brunel trail and took it to Tremont and hiked the spur to Owl's Cliff. Hiked a stone's throw off trail to Owl's Cliff summit. |
