The first day of September 1974, Avery LT was our camp after a 21 mile day. Several nice views from the mountains along the way including mine, the same as Avery’s Silver Aisle picture. Several LT’s are now found next to the pond.
Except for the lack of backpackers in the shot, this view has to be one of the most iconic views found along the whole AT. I think it might top McAfee Knob!
The Bigelow Range was initially blazed by Helon N. Taylor, then Game Supervisor in Maine. The trail was later improved in 1934-36 by the CCC.
A current map of the Mountain can be found here.
A highly recommended hike!
