Strafford County Highpoint Trip Report

note: All coordinates are in the WGS84 datum.

This effort was part of a larger journey collecting New England county highpoints in May 2012.

There is no negative signage along any of the roads for a western approach to this highpoint.

From the southeast corner of the parking lot (where I slept the night in my rental) hike about 100-150 feet uphill on the obvious path to reach this "T"-junction at (43.53671° N, 71.11875° W) with a much more substantial trail. Take it right (south) and proceed to the highpoint liner. After using this larger trail for a few hundred feet I then chose to bushwhack south directly to the liner rather than go via the top of Copple Crown Mtn.

The air distance from parking lot to liner area is only 0.31 mile; and just 0.24 mile from where I departed the southbound trail.
