CATSWomen at Broughton Ledges Trail
Saturday, June 29, 2024 from 08:30am to 11:30pm
Broughton Ledges Trail - Ensign Pond Road
CATSWomen is a volunteer-led group that offers a welcoming environment for women of all ages and abilities to gain confidence in the outdoors through Champlain Area Trails.
Enjoy this 6.2-mile loop trail near Moriah, New York. Generally considered a moderately challenging route, it will take around 3 hours to complete. It is a perfect trail for getting deep in the woods in some wild backcountry. The first two miles involve a fair amount of steep climbing, including an interesting view of Ensign Pond and some low mountains in the Hammond Pond Wild Forest. The second stage of the hike is a big four-mile loop that walks below the massive Broughton Ledges. Much of this part of the hike is on old tote roads through beautiful mature forests.
Meet at the trailhead at 8:15 am. This hike should take about 3 hours.
Dress in good wicking layers for summer hiking. Be prepared for bugs and mud. Remember to bring snacks and water!
