Looking up the Jockey Cap Trail
Route: Jockey Cap Trail
With limited time and good weather, I opted to take a quick walk up Jockey Cap. The trail was dry and snow free and the summit views excellent. Though not for long, there were no bugs to deal with.

Directions to trailhead: Take US Route 302 East into Fryeburg. Just a bit after the village, the Jockey Cap Country Store and Motel will be on the left. At the furthest end of the parking lot near the motel, there's a sign for the Jockey Cap Trail. There are a few parking spaces labelled for the trail there.
