Time for the weekly guessing game!
You’ll probably need a few verbal clues for this one, as well as photos, because this mountain isn’t among Maine’s most famous.
• The mountain is not far from Moosehead Lake.
• It’s on the Appalachian Trail, but I began the hike on another trail.
OK, that’s all you get. By looking at the photos below, guess what mountain I climbed last week (on a hot, sunny day), and leave your best guesses in the comment section. The winner gets an internet high five (a prize of high value). I’ll post the 1-minute hike video and information on the mountain tomorrow morning, so stay tuned!
