the Trail rises sharply for 1 mile. After another sharp descent and ascent it drops to and crosses Alder Brook just beyond the 7-mile marker. From Alder Brook, passing a splendid spring on the way, the summit of the last ridge is gained and the Trail descends to the Arlington-Wardsboro Road at the bridge over Black Branch, 9 miles from Glastenbury Mountain (Arlington, 12.6 miles west; West Wardsboro, 8 miles east).

THE LONG TRAIL is described from south to north. Read up from the bottom of the page.
