| Comments: |
A quick afternoon traverse of Blueberry (Benton). While the road being closed lengthened the hike, it wasn't a detriment. Easy going up to the eastern ledges, with views out to a socked in Moosilauke, then up to the true summit via the herd path. Down the west side, over great ledges, then a bit brushy down to the logging road portion out to the western trailhead. |
