Snowshoes needed on Tiger Mtn
Exit off I-90 as if going to the popular trail. Turn right, but instead of turning right again for the popular trail, turn left and park at a gate. Walk the road a bit, past the old logging mill pond, then find the High Point trail on the right.
Lots of nice wandering here; there's Lingering Trail, Dwights' Way - we chose to head up to the Tiger Mtn Trail.
There are a couple of small trees down, nothing to hinder - but that's because the snow was deep enough to make it easy for us. Without snow, one tree might be a hassle.
HikerJim and I strapped on our snowshoes at the RR grade, but we could have used them earlier. It was strange to see so much snow on Tiger! Snowshoes! And we needed them, too!
Nothing fantastic to report, just a heads up that there are other trails than the main Tiger Mtn trail to enjoy on Tiger Mtn.
I am interested in photos of that old logging mill. Anyone?
