I've done this hike twice. I didn't even know about it until I had hiked it with Snickers and Bushwhacker one day (Thank you!). It is a nice little gem deep in the High peaks, nestled near Johns Brook Lodge. If you find yourself in the area and realize you just don't feel like a high peak but want to hike something, this would be that hike.
It's a little hike to get to, to begin with. From the garden parking lot, it's about 3 miles to Johns Brook Lodge. From there it's a short jaunt of about .5 miles, off the Ore Bed trail.
There are a few steep sections that can be tricky in the summer, but it is short-lived before it turns into a short ridge walk to the summit that offers limited views of Armstrong/Upper Wold Jaw mountains.
The first...
1 lbs rhubarb.
1 cup white sugar.
1, 3oz pkg of strawberry jello.
1 yellow cake mix,
1 cup water.
1/4 cup melted butter.
9X13 greased pan.
Rhubarb on bottom of pan.
Sprinkle sugar over rhubarb, then jello, then cake mix.
Pour water and butter over everything.

When Mom makes this she doubles everything so she has leftovers.
2 lbs beef chunks cubed (stew meat).
2 tsp garlic buds.

Mushrooms
Put stew meat in a bag with flour and mix, then empty in the pot to brown in a small amount of oil.
Add remaining ingredient and bake covered tightly at 350 degrees for 3 hours (Check after 2 hours) to make sure liquid isn't gone.
