"Checked out the southerly viewpoint Map Man suggested just off the peak on the way up and a northerly viewpoint on the way down. Nice family friendly hike with a workout! Another town HP (Epsom NH) done!" — SteveM_StickMan • May 9, 2021
"Hiked Fort Mountain via the AllTrails "Fort Mountain" Trail off of Swamp Rd and on Mountain View Rd. See link below. The trail is the access road for the telecommunication tower station at the top of the mountain. Industrial Communications has a sign at the beginning of the road that says "Hikers Welcome." I felt very welcomed. A mile up to the top. Great views of Concord, the Belknaps, Blue Hills Range including Parker and Evans, Mt. Kearsarge. No water from streams for your dog friends.

"I went on this hike after work a few hours before sunset. Hiked up the access road to communication tower. Found a five dollar bill! Great views to the north to southwest, including Belknap Mountain, Mt Kearsarge, the Uncanoonucs, and a glimpse of Manchester." — gullyhiker • Jul 19, 2017
