Trail Overview

This backwoods trail features the Mellen Lookout Tower at the top of Mount Whittlesey and a few old Berkshire Mine Ruins. The trail offered a few steep hill climbs, rutted-out and rock-filled sections, and a few rock gardens. The bugs were annoying, and cell service was minimal. A chainsaw or similar would be good to have, too.
