Did this one with a friend for golden hour. Looks like this was an unofficial route at one point that has been taken over by the town. Mostly gentle grades except for some steeper pitches climbing up to the open shoulder of Sawyer (no trail to the high point). Two pedestrian tunnels lead under I-91.
Fantastic views of the western Whites and north and south over the Connecticut River from the cleared, grassy shoulder, which also has a picnic table. This would be an amazing spot for sunrise. |
