I started out in the rain but by the time I got to the top it was clear and I had a beautiful view. The rocks were slippery going back down so I had to be careful.

This is a nice hike that takes in two beautiful waterfalls. It’s steep but not too difficult.

This is actually the Keewadin Trail to White Rocks overlook. It’s a great hike but much of it in not on the Long Trail.

Snowshoed a section of this hike from Mad Tom Notch Rd (winter trailhead) in Peru to the summit of Styles Peak. The winter trailhead requires a 1 mile walk up the road (it's plowed due to active logging in the area) to the LT trailhead. A beautiful climb with a fairly steep grade and switchbacks. Thick spruce forest above 3,000' and great views all along the way. Deep drifts at the summit kept me from the actual lookout, but still a great trail.

First off I am 36, in very good shape and am just starting my mountain hiking experience. I would rate this hike as moderate and not difficult. My GAIA GPS tracker says I moved 6.09 mi in 3hr15min which included about 50 minutes of non-hiking, while enjoying the sights.
It was a hike throuh the clouds in early January at 10°F with hard snow pack, 2” fresh powder and a slight breeze. Visibility was about 200’ but the hike up was still very enjoyable. It includes a few beautiful ice waterfalls and towards the top, a nice dense pine forest. The lookout areas would be gorgeous in the clear but were still very neat in the clouds. The trail is very well marked except maybe 4 tricky spots where you need to stop and search for the next marking. I would not have done it without my ice cleats as the trail gets pretty icy in spots. The trail is very well kept and would certainly recommend the hike for someone looking for a good moderate hike.

This short out and back trail offers amazing views after just a little bit of a climb. Such a beautiful and unique landscape, with lots of spots along the way to relax and enjoy!

A little muddy from the recent rains but manageable. Nice scenery along the way. Our view at the top was obscured by the low clouds but overall a nice day hike
