Although Bald Mountain (not to be confused with Bald Rock Mountain in Camden Hills State Park )  is only 1280 ft in elevation,  the summit is home to world class scenic panoramas of amazing mountain and nearby ocean views, and a top that is devoid of trees. The trail is 2.4 miles and a 698ft ascent. Plan to pack a lunch to enjoy at the summit. The hike should take no more than a couple of hours. For those interested, we could meet in downtown Camden afterwards for hot beverages.

Parts of the trail are rocky and icy, so microspikes are a MUST. Dogs allowed, but remember: icy! Do dress in layers, no cotton.
