Beautiful color. Interesting finds. There's a cemetery near the parking lot. Several cellar holes and foundations near the trailhead. Trail is easy until it starts climbing. Not really a difficult climb, but be careful of fallen leaves and moisture, Prema slipped twice. Ridge walk is pretty. No unobstructed views, except for an obscure herd path on the right as you're heading to the summit. Descends maybe 1-200 feet and you can see a small unobstructed view.
Went back the way we came. Drove around checking out the roads, seeing if we could leave
via Round Pond Road, but it was flooded. Those roads are rough in a few spots, and I had to back up to let a truck by. Prema thinks I'm qualified to drive Sandwich Notch Road now???????? |
