Hike to Raccoon Ridge
Details
Moderate Hike
**Distance: 5.8 miles
**Elevation gain: 840 ft
See all the way to Pennsylvania!
We’ll start at Mohican outdoor Center, go down the Coppermine Trail and up the steep Kaiser
Trail to Raccoon Ridge. We’ll have beautiful views as we head south on the Appalachian Trail to Mohican Mountain for lunch and a gorgeous 360 degree panorama. Then we’ll head back to the Center going north on the AT. The Mohican Center has a nice dining room where we can have soup or lesbian second lunch. It’s one of our best traditions.
**Notes: There are no rock scrambles or exposed cliffs, but the trail is rocky. There’s no cell phone coverage at the trailhead, but there is up on the ridge. It’s cool and breezy up there and a windbreaker is handy. Friendly dogs are welcome but not indoors.
