This scenic tour takes you through dense forest and past the frozen spectacle of Champney Falls. The climb is mild and maintains around a nine-degree slope over most of its length. As you travel you’ll have occasional but excellent views of the Pemigewasset Wilderness climaxing with the excellent unobstructed views from this mountain’s exposed summit. Be aware the final quarter mile of this adventure requires you shed your skis and climb over exposed granite ledges. The descent is a mixture of mild terrain with trails wide enough to make turns on and the occasional opportunity for off trail turns too.
