About This Trail
It is easy to get to the top of the mountain. The summit is wooded and there are great views from the Great Range all the way to the high point. There is a framed picture in the center. You will want to take some time at the top for photos. It is one of the easier climbs in the high peaks, so feel free to bring family.
