 | Comments: |
Mill Pond trail to Goodhue Hill trail to the summit and fantastic viewpoint of the Packs, Skatutakee/Thumb and Monadnock from Goodhue Hill. Bushwhacked down to a logging road and eventually the class VI road called Weston Road on Gaia. In honor of March Madness, continued on to Ball Hill via logging roads/class VI roads and stumbled upon a beautiful stand of Balsam Pines in the process. This is a beautiful area to explore. Many signs posting that hikers are welcome and hunting only with written permission. |
