The trip started at the state log-loading area (elevation 1500’) at the end of the Trapp Road in Huntington. The route followed old logging roads and the Catamount Trail to Cobb Pond at 2350’. Between Cobb Pond and the Hedgehog Brook Trail junction with the Long Trail (2850’) the route was a pure bushwhack on rough and fairly steep terrain.

There were actually two trips – a scouting trip on September 3 with Joe and Ken, and the scheduled trip on September 12 with Joe, Rich, and David. On each trip, the group decided to forego a jaunt to the summit, turning back soon after reaching the LT.

Participants – Joe Frank, Ken Austin, Richard Larsen, and David Warren.
