Description
This trail branches off the Griffin Trail at an obscure carsonite post that's easy to miss. It ascends through a forest of White Pines and Spruces to the summit of Holy Mount. Here, at the summit, there are a few historical features, including a cellarhole and a stone wall. The trail runs along the ridgetop, then descends to its end at Shaker Brook Trail.
