Description
Follow the purple blazes for the Benjamin Weeks Trail. This trail is a lower-traffic option to hike up Mount Rowe or other nearby peaks when connected with other trails in the area. Depending on the season, this trail may be very muddy and wet. There are many minor water crossings along the entire length of the trail. Access this trail via the Mount Rowe Trail, after about 0.65 miles, you'll briefly merge with the Mount Rowe Trail before branching off to the right and taking a different route up the mountain. Near the end of this trail, you have the option of taking the North Spur Trail towards the summit of Mount Rowe or continuing on and connecting with the Belknap Range Trail at the end of this trail.
