Ascent Trip ReportThis is 5.2-mile hike was not too challenging, but not too easy. We chose to climb here because of the promised views of Lake Champlain, but the clouds cut down on our visibility. The abandoned fire tower is a great sight to behold, and when coupled with clouds makes for some dramatic photos. Would definitely love to return on a day with better visibility.
