Tall Timber's Guide to Hiking Monadnock Mountain

From the newly refurbished fire tower on the heavily wooded summit of this mountain, there are good views of the Vermont - New Hampshire north country and southern Quebec. The trail is well marked and maintained by the local boy scouts. The Green Mountain Club repaired the steps leading up the fire tower in 2005, so it is a safe climb once again and the views are excellent from this vantage point. Also, if the trail is already broken, this is an excellent winter snowshoe trip!
