Mount Tom - Metacomet / Monadnock Ridge
Mt. Tom / Metacomet - The Steep Switchbacks
|
|
|
|
At the corner of the first switchback on the north end of the Mt. Tom ridge, we can take a breather and see the steep remaining section to the second switchback, which will be followed by a flnal swerve to the west before the ultimate straightening of the trail toward the south. The slope here is 30-45 degrees, so the switchbacks are a pleasant assist.
Though the actual course of the trail can be hard to see in this image, it proceeds straight ahead from this position.
