| Comments: |
Very moderate and fun ascent, and it was probably the easiest 4000 footer I've done in New England! The trail steepens near the summit; just take your time and it will be over quickly. Trail was somewhat rough in places, but nothing unusual. Unfortunately, by the time we reached the summit it was mostly viewless due to clouds-only got a snippet of Lake Champlain and some peaks to the south. Will definitely return to this peak on a clearer day! |
