I'll be "cooler camping" at Sugarloaf II Campground next week. I'd like to dayhike Hale. Thinking about parking on Zealand Road at the Hale Brook trailhead, and then hiking up Zealand Road to Zealand Trail. I'll then continue up Zealand Trail to the hut and then up Hale via Lend-a-Hand. I'll descend back to the car via Hale Brook Trail. I'm thinking this loop will be about 6-8 miles. Is that a correct assumption? What should I expect? Is Hale's summit exposed at all? Suggestions are appreciated. Thanks and look for pics later next week!
