Comments
Comments: Moderate hike with some great views at the summit and viewpoints along the way.
Still some nice fall color.
Keep your eye on the trail with the leaves down. It can be a bit of a challenge.
Don't forget to take a right from the old railroad bed to the UNH Trail at .2 miles from the trailhead.
Personally, I suggest going clockwise on the loop to avoid some rocky scrambles on the way down from the summit but either way will work.
