General Hike Owls Head Lookout

P2010015.webp
I hiked this on 11-29-2014, a beautiful day in the woods. Cold or not, 8 degrees isn't bad when there's little to no wind. The dogs did great and I got rid of my cabin fever.

From the parking area followed a dirt driveway for a short distance before dropping into the woods on the left. From here I hiked through a very nice mixed forest, crossing a fairly new footbridge over Slide Brook. The climb is easy for the first mile to this crossing. Once I crossed over it began to be a steady climb to the junction at 2.4 miles. Going left from the junction is short, I found to be a moderately steep 0.2-mile spur trail that brought me to the summit.

The summit has wide-open views in almost all directions.
