Howdee all,
Jeff and I cut our Maine trip short so that he could go to Hiking Camp with his brother in New Hampshire…
I joined in on a few hikes myself.
Hiking camp teens form a like to unload and stack wood.
The first hike we went on was..
Glen Boulder Hike
Distance (Total):
3.2 miles / 5.1 km
Elevation Gain:
1,754 feet / 535 meters
Difficulty:
Intermediate
Nearby Town:
Gorham, New Hampshire, United States
Glen Boulder, visible to travelers on Route 16, is a glacial erratic curiously perched on the mountainside in Pinkham Notch. This steep climb leaves Route 16 from the Glen Ellis Falls Parking area. The trail rises above treeline at a relatively low elevation, passing two trail junctions, crossing brooks, and traversing open rocks on it's way to Glen Boulder. The views along the way are tremendous.

ReplyDeleteI would have liked to have been with you guys on that hike. Great view! We did just the beginning of the hike to the falls.
ReplyDeleteI was there two years ago and i was impressed. Unfortunately i had no time to visit around it very well because i was there for only two days, but i hope to visit it again very soon. I recommend this place, it is very nice.
