Hike Choices:

Bald Spot: A popular hike among summer campers, this hike gives you a birds’ eye view of campIf it’s quiet enough and you are loud enough, you can call down to people in camp and hear them call backThe rocky “bald spot” is also a great place to take photos and enjoy the view.  

Hinterlands:  Difficulty level is moderate.  Relatively short distance, although mostly inclines.

Cornish/Northgate Ruins:  Explore the hauntingly beautiful collection of ruins called Northgate (or the Cornish Estate).  Difficulty level ranges from rustic, unleveled roads to mild inclines. This is also a great option for families with children.
