Sachem Head
Greenfield, MA
Trailheads, measurements, times, distances, and maps are all approximate and relative to the hike(s) as shown below.
Stairway on the ascent to Sachem Ledge
After raining most of the day, the sun started to come out, revealing peak foliage. The trail was mostly dry, however the ledge on the final ascent proved tricky.
With the exception of the stairway and ledge final ascent, the hike is pretty much flat.
