Dorset VT 12-2-06

Trip Report:

Ah, Dorset peak, a bit on the obscure side. There aren’t really any views on top that I saw but it was an interesting hike. I followed the logging trails up from tower road in Dorset Hollow. The logging roads are in remarkably good shape, with very little erosion especially above the 3000’ point. By the looks of the log quite a few people seem to hit this peak, mostly deer hunters!

Nice! Sorry I missed it, but I hope to have plenty of opportunities to get back up there.
