Wooded ridge with a rocky summit offering sweeping views over the Sugar River Valley and surrounding Green Mountains—excellent for broken-forested foregrounds, fall color panoramas and sunrise/sunset skies. Accessible via a short to moderate hike from a roadside trailhead in Newport; parking limited at the pullout. Best visited at golden hour and on clear days or after storms for dramatic skies. Expect seasonal trail conditions (mud/snow); no fees or permits.
