Polecat Trail up to Wildcat D. Then over to A peak via Wildcat Ridge Trail. Crossed over C and B peaks but those are not marked. A lot of short and steep up and downs on this part of the trail. On the way back down Polecat had an encounter with 2 moose. Kept my distance. Had to backtrack a little and took another ski trail down. Picked up Polecat Trail further down the mountain.
