"My second hike of the day. Also my longest hike of the day. Did an out and back. The trail got pretty steep on the ascent. There was even a rope assist in one spot. Nice directional views from there. It would also be the worst views of the Fulton Lake Trifecta if you had to rank them. " — newenglandwarrior • Sep 19, 2024
"My fifth hike of the day (my fourth hike was a walk in the woods to Cascade Lake in the Pigeon Wilderness to fulfill a different hiking challenge). The ascent wasn't bad. The slab rock was interesting, being rather prominent so you were walking up a blunt butter knife ridge with 6 foot drops on either side. The firetower had excellent views overlooking the Fulton Lakes. " — newenglandwarrior • Sep 19, 2024
"My third hike of the day. After Black Bear, I did this hike. A short and steep hike. I was feeling it on the way up. Excellent views from the summit. Directional views overlooking part of the Fulton Lakes." — newenglandwarrior • Sep 19, 2024
