Scrambly in a few spots- wet as was typical of previous New England hikes. Someone was camping at the peak, which was covered in trees and still cloudy, so I took a picture with the geodetic marker along the trail (it keeps going along the Appalachian Trail), then moseyed on back down. There were a few spots of vistas on the way down, but I couldn’t seem to see what I thought would be the peak, unfortunately!
There’s a reason the AT is known as the “Green Tunnel.” The views are few and far between. But lots of opportunities for forest bathing! 🙂
