This effort was part of a larger journey
to complete Vermont and reach the Ontario province highpoint in October 2011.
This note assumes one takes the most popular route, one described
most succinctly by Brennan Connelley.
Stay straight
at (42.70031° N, 71.90425° W) rather than turning right.
Stay straight
at (42.70657° N, 71.90163° W) rather than turning left.
Turn right
at (42.70634° N, 71.90007° W), a "T"-junction.
Turn left
at (42.70584° N, 71.89955° W) onto a dirt two-track.
Highpoint
at (42.70639° N, 71.89768° W) has rocks embedded along the ridgeline and perpendicular to the
two-track.
Note the intentionally-placed branches also marking this ridgeline, and, presumably,
the county line as well.
