No views to brag about on this one but lots of nice forests and swampy areas. I learned that Gore is on the Kingdom Heritage Trail and is seeing quite a bit of love as is the warden's cabin on the summit (new roof and some other repairs underway). Trail was easy to follow and fun. Plenty of water down low but I didn't find a spring or anything near the cabin.
This is an excellent trail with good footing for those that like to go faster than walking.
This peak is on the New England Fifty finest (prominence) and the new MyGoNorth9er list. |
