| osatrik | Greylock - near wilderness experience Date Climbed: Sep 20, 2007 | |
| My third time to this summit (I have been to 49 state high points. ), but this was the best view by far -- great weather, too bad we were a few weeks too early for the famed New England color show. Also the first time I've hiked up Greylock, rather than taking the road. Hiked the Cheshire Harbor Trail, only saw 5 people all afternoon. The Cheshire Harbor Trail, starting from the end of West Mountain Road in Adams is the shortest way to the summit for hikers. Parking area is at 1560', so this is a nice 1900+' vertical hike in typical Berkshires woods on an old road bed. The posted description makes it sound a lot harder to find than it is. From Adams Town Center simply go up Maple Street past the large cemetary, turn left onto Friend Street/West Road (at the corner of the cemetary), then the second right is West Mountain Road, also signed "Greylock Greenhouses". The trailhead is just past the nursery, where the pavement ends. | |

| tioga | Lightning Bolt Trail Date Climbed: Jul 29, 2006 | |
| Hiked it with a friend who went to nearby Williams College. Went up the Lightning Bolt trail, a steep ascent from the eastern side. The sun was setting as we reached the top and it was fogged in once we got there. | |

| rkrevald | Summit Number Twenty Date Climbed: Jun 20, 2007 | |
| Hiked up the Cheshire Harbor Trail and AT to the summit. Overcast, chilly, and windy at the summit. Actually had to put on a jacket. Views were a little obscured due to weather but another beutiful New England summit nevertheless. | |

| lizrdboy | One More Highpoint | |
| It would have been a nice view if it hadn't been socked in. No complaints though, it always nice in the mountains. | |

| mattdalman | Busy on Columbus Day Date Climbed: Oct 9, 2006 | |
| We drove up this one, because we didn't have time to hike it. This was our 6th highpoint of our NE road trip. It was very busy because it was Columbus Day and because it was a beautiful day. | |

| TiogaBradford | New Year's Day Date Climbed: Jan 1, 2005 | |
| Climbed Greylock on New Year's day of 2005. The mountain was relatively snow-free, but we did run into some slick ice the last mile or so. We actually got a late start that day, and ended up coming down the mountain in the dark, and thankfully had our headlamps. | |
