After hiking nearby Stonehouse Mtn. I stopped by here for a walk out to Mason Pond and decided to do the short bushwhack up to Bundy Mtn. (NH 1,000-footers list).
I crossed the pasture at the farm, which has a fantastic look back to Mt. Cube. Watch out for the cow pies in the pasture! I followed the snowmobile trail (Gaia calls this Ledge Trail) into the woods and up to the col between Stonehouse and Bundy. From there I whacked up and down Bundy in easy, open woods. The register is not where I assumed it would be but was nearby. Only a few names in there since it was placed in 2019.
Mason Pond was pretty but would have been better at a different time of day as I was looking directly into the sun. A visit to the farm is worth it just for the view of Cube! |
