About this event

 A vigorous nine-switchback climb to the 1,335-foot summit overlooking Brattleboro, Vermont, and the Connecticut River. The trail to the top of Wantastiquet Mountain is wide and easy to follow, but the steady uphill angle requires more effort than a casual stroll. Nine major switchbacks in the trail wind back and forth up the mountainside. A small clearing on a rocky ledge at the top opens up a wonderful, high-level vista. The Connecticut River, the cozy New England town of Brattleboro, Vermont, and the Green Mountains appear to the west.  The hike will take about three hours total and about 4 miles total.  This is a dog friendly hike.  I will be bringing my dog.

Hey Goldnwolf,
I forgot to put in the posting it is a dog friendly hike and that I will be bringing my dog. I up dated the posting with that information.

Are we still doing this hike even if it's just the two of us? I'm up for it but wanted to check... :-)
