Overview
Hall Mountain can be summited via the easy Class 1 Hall Mtn. trail. The trail itself transforms from a summer hiking trail to a winter snowmobile trail. Hall Mountain is one of the few mountains that can be summit in April (mud season) without significant erosion. With a total roundtrip approach of 2.0 miles this summit can and should be done during the morning or the evenings when the best pictures can be taken.

Red Tape
From Podunk Road there is no permit required. However the rest of Bear Brook State Park requires a fee.When To Climb
Hall Mtn. can be summited all year including April. There is a mud season but little trail erosion will happen on what is already a snowmobile trail in winter. For summit views November to April are the best times to go because the summit views are quickly becoming covered by trees. During winter uses cauton on the trail due to snowmobilers.Camping

Hasn't voted | The place where the photos were taken (and the survey marker was before someone stole it) was at the 925' summit here http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?z=19&n=4773954&e=307986&size=s&datum=nad83&layer=DRG25 The trail circles around the 941' peak, you need to bushwhack at least .1 miles to get there | |

Hasn't voted | Hello, I found a small spelling error I wanted to bring to your attention as a courtesy: Though not truely a mountain in any significant measure this summit comes with many spendors, including a decent view, and delicious summer blueberries. Perhaps you meant "splendors"? | |
