*Important information: the top of the road is a site at a UCC Outdoor Ministries camp called Horton Center. The 100+ acres was donated by Douglas Horton for non-profit use. I grew up attending as a camper and worked on staff, this view of Pinkham Ledge is tattooed on my arm along with "on the loose to climb a mountain, on the loose where I am free" and it is the most spiritual place in the world for me. The trail and Ledge we are hiking to is USNF. Please be respectful of the natural surroundings, trail, other visitors and guests. The program director has graciously agreed to unlock the gate for us this weekend so we do not have to hike up from the Pine Trailhead.
