VizziniGreat Hike
I climbed Saddleback a few years ago when I still smoked, had to stop a lot (and have a smoke of course). My Father (who was almost 60) would just shake his head and keep going. I was so out of shape I had the bright idea to hide my pack halfway up (a ranger fortunately ended up finding it). He still makes fun of how pathetic I was on that trip lol.

CatamountPeakbagging trip  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jul 11, 1995

Climbed Saddleback and the Horn on Day 1 of a three day peakbagging trip in which I tagged the summits of six 4,000-foot peaks in Maine. Love the Rangeley area and had a pleasant hike on a fine summer day.

Skinned up on telemark skis to watch the sunrise. -30F windchill and the winds were blowing 80mph - nearly blew me off the summit. One of the most gorgeous sunrises ever though.

woodsxcRoute Climbed: Ski Resort trail to AT  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Aug 27, 2008

Started at the Saddleback Ski Resort parking lot, went up the trail at the main chair lift before picking up the AT and taking it the last quarter mile to the top. Steep, but worth it. A great way to start our backpack trip.

Climbed with The Horn via the Appalachian Trail from Route 4. One of the best hikes in the East. Climbed it in truely fantastic weather. The approach from Route 4 was long but well worth it as the hike traversed several more miles of alpine terrain than the ascent from the ski area and passed some beautiful remote lakes en route to the summit. The crown jewel of the Rangeley region.

Probably much shorter from the westside route. Ah, memories of the AT -- floating logs, mud, rocks, roots.

Climbed Saddleback via the ski area and then went over to Saddleback horn for the 100 highest summit tag. Skied back down the resort. A great peak in a beautiful section of New England.
