13 Miles on the AT

We'll take the Mohawk Trail up and over Breadloaf Mountain, then transfer to the AT and do the Pine Knob Loop, and trudge across Easter and Sharon Mountains before finishing at the northern Mohawk/AT junction. There'll be good views along the way. It's +/- thirteen miles and something like 3300' plus of elevation gain. In short, come ready to hike. Bring plenty of water. Energy snacks. This will require some shuttling. Our pace is fast.
