Trail Description: Hunger Mtn is one of the most hiked mountain not on Vermont's Long Trail. There are no developments on the summit and the mountain offers spectacular views of the Green Mtns to the West, South and East. The trail from the Waterbury side is quite steep with a constant pitch, but only the last quarter mile involves climbing over boulders. After enjoying the views on the summit we will traverse the Worcester Range via the skyline trail. This trail follows the ridge with occasional outcrops offering great vistas. We then descend to the Stowe Pinnacle which offers open views over the greater Stowe area. The hike is 7 miles with a cumulative elevation gain of about 2500 ft and should take 5.5 - 6 hours. Please bring lunch/snacks and plenty of water. This trip may be cross listed with VGSA. Rain date will be Sun July 29.

After the hike: Everyone is welcome to a cookout at my house. I'll provide meat and veggies for the grill. Please bring a side dish/dessert and your favorite beverage to share.

We meet at my place, then carpool and spot cars at the two trailheads. Detailed directions will be emailed to all participants a few days before the event.
