Mansfield and Katahdin access late April
Posted: Tue Mar 23, 2010 5:45 am
I have the opportunity to be out in the Northeast the last week in April and I was looking at the Red Tape for Katahdin and Mansfield and had some questions.
On Mansfield when it says the park service closes the hiking trails in April, is it still possible to climb to the summit via the toll road? If not, what other options are available?
On Katahdin, is there any trail that leads from outside the park that could get me to Katahdin? I climb solo and will not be able to park inside the park under their 'winter' climbing rules without three other members.
