"6 of us went up Abraham and Ellen. We went up via the Battell Tr. Socked in on Abraham. We switched over to snowshoes and made our way to Ellen. On the return, the cloud cover lifted, and we had views back on Abraham. My second time on this peak but the first time with views. They were great. I drove back to Portsmouth after this hike.

"Belle journée tout de même nuageuse. Je voulais faire une dernière rando avant de partir dans l'ouest des USA. Ce sera donc une rando de pratique! Nous somme un groupe très restreint et expérimenté. Ce sera donc un autre défi pour moi. 19Km et 8 sommets. Bon ok il y a des sommets qui étaient plus des bonus qu'autre chose mais ils sont là! La rando fut magnifique car nous étions sur des crêtes tout le long, de Abraham à Ellen. Je n'ai eu qu'un seul accident en cours de route et c'est au sommet de Lincoln. J'ai glissé sur une roche et j'ai bousillé mon cellulaire en tombant dessus :( :( :( Cellulaire qui me permettait de prendre des photos. Je ne pourrai donc pas l'avoir pour ma semaine au USA :( Je braille ma vie... Donc j'ai des photos jusqu'à Lincoln et le reste est dans ma mémoire!" — fsoucy76 • Oct 14, 2017

"Deb and I picked another beautiful day to hike, this time we did the Sugarbush Range via the Long Trail from Abraham to Lincoln to Nancy Hanks to Cutts to Ellen peak. Great weather, great views and great exercise! Found the hike very enjoyable and a steady moderate hike the whole way. " — hbotc • Sep 16, 2017

"out & back 'traverse' up to Abraham and over to Ellen AND THEN BACK..... I didnt have a car spot so it was easier just to go all the way and then come all the way back....beautiful hike, watched the rain come in and move around me but I never got wet....stunning day!!" — shay-shay • Aug 7, 2017

"Headed up to Vermont Friday night and stayed at Green Mountain campground. Following morning dropped one car off at Lincoln Gap for finish. Then headed to the Jerusalem trail for start, hiked to Ellen and over sub peaks to Mt Abraham. Was wet and rainy day, but fun day with friends just the same." — blackwolf_03278 • Jun 3, 2017

"With Caet Cash. We were NOBO'ing the Long Trail, & bagged Abraham, Little Abe, Lincoln, Nancy Hanks, Cutts, & Ellen. After leaving Cutts we quickly popped out on top of this mountain. Strange to hike over the ski resorts! Not something I usually see in the woods when I hike. We didn't linger long, took a few photos and then continued on. It wasn't until about a quarter mile of drop that we realized we had just been on the summit, haha. We headed toward the Jerusalem Trail, and passed the junction to the Overlook to have another beer and snack, then backtracked and went down the Jerusalem Trail. Here it got really muddy. After a sharp drop down a stream, the trail flattened out, the black flies came out en masse, and we splashed our way along the maple syrup lines to Caet's car. She drove us back to my car at Lincoln Gap & we said our goodbyes. All told, a gorgeous day spent with a good friend before she embarks on her upcoming PCT journey. Good luck, Caet!" — kellieirene • May 27, 2017

"Did not have good weather on this one but figured a great way to burn part of a day. Little misty, very windy, cold and overcast on the summit. Made good time though, out and back in 4, probably due to not hanging on the summit too long. Also had my first encounter with a moose, a big bull crossed my path about 50 feet in front of me on the Jerusalem trail just past the maple tree farm. I spooked it, it came out of the trail from the right while I was going west up the trail, crossed the trail and went about 100 feet down the other side, turned broadside and looked at me. Startled the crap out of me, I paused, and watched for a couple of seconds and moved away up the trail keeping my eye on him. He was magnificent. Didn't stop to take a picture, didn't want to anger him. Just walked by. Saw a buck about 5 minutes later! Lucky day on the trail, not so lucky at the summit!" — hbotc • Oct 1, 2016

"Great hike along ridge line from Lincoln Gap north to Mt Ellen and back. Very challenging in places along the LT. Sunny hot day so lots of great views everywhere. Bagged Abrahams and others along the way." — Alohabuffy • Aug 3, 2016

"Great day for a traverse! Met a friend and we left her car at Appalachian Gap. We took mine to Lincoln Gap and proceeded to cross the Monroe Skyline. We got clobbered by a t-storm about halfway through, but it cleared and we only got a little wet. " — ne4kclimber • Jul 28, 2016

"A chance to actually have a view from the summit, and a ride from Manchester to the mountain, sign me up. Went with Rachel Brayley for her 66th mtn on the NE67. Great views from the summit. Also detoured to check out the hut for the side-to-side challenge. " — newenglandwarrior • Jul 31, 2015
