Plymouth, NH
Trailheads, measurements, times, distances, and maps are all approximate and relative to the hike(s) as shown below.
The Sutherland Trail
Route: Fauver Link, Sutherland Trail (Plymouth Mountain), bushwhack, Sutherland Trail, Fauver Link
Another hot day. From near the summit, I bushwhacked out to some of the ledges visible from Interstate 93 - excellent views.
The lower portion of the Pikes Peak loop as been closed, making it an out-and-back spur.
Aggressive attack grouse patrolling the trail not too far below.

The Fauver Trail trailhead
Looking east at Red Hill and the Ossipees from the ledges near the summit of Plymouth Mountain
Directions to trailhead: Take Route 25 West from Ashland. A few minutes after leaving Ashland, take a left onto Cummings Road. A minute or two after a sharp left turn, take a right onto Texas Hill Road. A few minutes later, continue straight through a junction onto Old Hebron Road. The Fauver Link parking lot will be on the left a few hundred yards thereafter. The Fauver Link Trail trailhead is located at the back end of the parking lot.
