Division D

STARK MTS. to BREADLOAF MOUNTAIN, THE PRESIDENTS RANGE

Birch Glen Lodge to Glen Ellen, six hours; water en route uncertain. Spring at Beaver Meadow may be dug out if seemingly dry. Notable views from Molly Stark's Balcony, Dean's and Champlain Panoramas of northerly ranges. Many other fine views in other directions. Abandoned highroad crosses through Appalachian Pass and may still be readily followed, easterly five miles to Waitsfield and westerly four miles to Hanksville.

Stark Wall very steep. Dean's Cave, a curiosity.

Glen Ellen Lodge open, built of peeled logs, pole bunk full width, should have balsam bedding. Poles so springy that little is required. Permanent water. Lodge has stove and simple cooking utensils, unless stolen. Beware of fire in spruce tops or in humus soil, which in dry weather is inflammable, smouldering underground for long distances.

A blazed side trail leads westerly about three miles to Mrs. Andrew Hallock's on the Lincoln-Huntington road. This side trail comes out on the so-called Dwyer road, a secondary road running north from the little village of Jerusalem, at a point where farm buildings have been burned. From this point, follow the road north to an abandoned house and turn west across the meadow and Hallock Brook to the Lincoln-Huntington road; then follow this latter road north about one-fourth mile to the Hallock Farm. Room and board can be obtained of Mrs. Hallock; her address is Box 28, R. F. D. No. 1, Starksboro, Vt.; phone, 62-4, Bristol central; also
