NORTHBOUND FROM RATTLESNAKE SWAMP TRAIL TO RATTLESNAKE SWAMP TRAIL - 1.30 MILES TOTAL MILES COMPLETED - 24.05 MILES This section of the Appalachian Trail runs along the Kittatinny Ridge in the Delaware Water Gap, with the Catfish Station Fire Tower along the way. NORTHBOUND FROM WASHINGTON MOUNTAIN ROAD TO PITTSFIELD/BLOTZ ROAD - 3.00 MILES TOTAL MILES COMPLETED - 22.75 MILES Save for a small rock scramble, this section of the AT in Massachusetts is relatively flat and well maintained. Stopped to view birds along the way, including black-capped chickadees, hairy woodpeckers, and robins. Weather was cloudy and 46 degrees. NORTHBOUND FROM ROCKWELL POND TO MOUNT GRAYLOCK SUMMIT - 0.50 MILES TOTAL MILES COMPLETED - 19.75 MILES Alexis “Topo” Corchado and I hit the Hopper Trail bound for Mount Graylock, the highest mountain in Massachusetts (3,491 feet), the last part of which is the Appalachian Trail. Partly sunny day with temps in the mid 40s but very windy at the summit.
