I've wanted to come up here for some time. John loves it here, but since K. No. Tr. pkg was full we decided to go up the Weeks Brook Trail. John wasn't looking forward to it since it was somewhat unmaintained for so long. It wasn't too bad: hardly any blowdowns and the blazes could be refreshed some (it was hard to follow the trail in spots). Shingle Pond has a nice view of the mountain before you make the more serious climb to the top. I love the lookout tower here. Looks like a nice place to camp out! And amazing views all around.
