Route Description
3/3/03 - Burrows Trail in WinterRound Trip Distance : 4.8 miles
Elevation Gain : 2200 feet
The Burrows trail is a nice hike through the Camel's Hump State forest, in the Green Mountains. The trail is well maintained and easy to follow.
From the parking lot at the Burrows trailhead follow the blue blazed trail markers. The first mile of the trail is fairly easy going, the next 1.4 miles increases in steepness but nothing technical. After 2.2 miles from the trailhead the Burrows trail ends at the Long Trail. From here follow the Long Trail south for 0.2 mile to the summit.
