Bear Mountain via Under Mt. Trail

Taconic, Connecticut, United States
5.1 miles
A classic Bernegger hike.  Off of Rt. 41 in CT, you take Under Mountain Trail (blue blazers) up to the Riga Junction where you meet the Appalachian Trail.  A mile or so later you climb up to the top of Bear Mountain.  Good view, good wild blueberries.  Moderate hike.  The dogs loved it.  Check out the pictures.

Appalachian Trail, MA.  We started at the Rt. 41 MA trailhead.  The first 50 minutes or so of this hike is quite difficult with a pack on.  Once you pass the beautiful falls, it is gradual.  There are some great spots to camp along the Race Brook Trail.  You can take the right at the AT junction to Mt. Everett, but we took the left to Race Mt.  Once you pass the...

I decided Easter was best spent wandering around in the woods on a nice long hike and managed to enlist my friends Eric and Kellie in my plans.  I searched through the EveryTrail listings for a good hike and came across one posted by niantic called Tristate 4 mt summit.  I was a little concerned that my Honda Civic might not get us to niantic's starting point and I was hoping for...
