I Didn't make my destination, but did have a great 5.12 mile hike in the
woods. One person had gone in ahead after the last storm. Since then
everything softened and froze making for not so pleasant snowshoeing.
The start of the trail crosses a small footbridge before hiking along a
very easy to follow and well developed trail. The trail is mostly flat
to the Hurricane Mountain Trail junction that veers to the right at just
over a mile from the start. There is a nice lean-to located in this
area to the left.
The trail continue flat for a bit before starting a steady climb that
passes through a mixed forest. The trail eventually eases as you get
closer to the south side of Lost Pond at 1.8 mi. where there is an
excellent viewing area, just off the trail to the right. The trail
continues along the left side of the pond over slightly difficult
terrain before reaching the north side at the lean-to. This was a far as
i managed to go based on the post holes left from a previous hiker.
