About This Trail

Imported description

It was said that they should start at Shannon brook. You can follow the red diamonds until you see a sign for Bald Cutoff. The Bald Knob cut off is about a mile and a half below the summit. The first half of the cut off is a steady incline. The trail has many small turns. It will mostly level out until you reach the intersection with the main trail. There is a sign that says hexagonal shaped rocks at a point less than a quarter mile from the intersection. There is a rock behind the sign. They will be on the ground near the waypoint. There are rock formations in California.
