One might call this trip a foliage bushwhack. Part foliage tour in the mountains, part steep and tough battle through the bush avoiding the extra thick pencil woods (thin trees growing so densely that transit is impossible). This tour, of course, is one we’ve done before. Helping folks with some of these trickier New England Hundred Highest peaks like this one, Scar Ridge (3775′). This tour was led by Redline Guide Ken Hodges. Here are a few photos he took. In them our guest from looks very happy!
A rustic, unused part of the ski area. This used to mark an old starting point.
A not-so-subtle clue.
It’s a bushwhack.
Summit.
Access was from Loon Mountain. Nice day!
Fine lead, Ken. Well done, team. And thank you for choosing Redline Guiding.
