Pleasant Mountain
Denmark, ME
Trailheads, measurements, times, distances, and maps are all approximate and relative to the hike(s) as shown below.
Looking up the Ledges Trail
Route: Ledges Trail
Lower half of the ledges trail was well packed and could support bareboots. A little bit of blue ice near the first set of ledges. Maybe a foot of snow.
Upper half of the trail was softening up later in the morning, so snowshoes would be a good idea. Maybe 1.5 feet of snowpack.
