We are camping at Rollins Pond which is a 20 min. ride to the mountain. It was a great day to do some hiking. The trail itself was very thick at first with plenty of wild prickly bushes tugging on the clothing. It was a well beaten trail, however it was not marked. It was surprisingly steep trail at first but improved as we were nearing the peak. Majority of the hike was in a wooded area. The views are rewarding. While looking South the ADK High Peaks in a distance (as seen above). Great day trip for any group size.
