The King Pine ski trail Route: King Pine, (King Pine summit), Pine Spills, King Pine On my way back from hiking Mt. Cutler in Maine, I decided to stop by King Pine and see if they had started making snow (since we were in the midst of a cold spell). They had, so I decided to hike up and check out the top of the hill for the first time. I hiked straight up the King Pine ski trail which, though a bit steep, isn't too bad due to the length. There isn't too much to see from the summit, since King Pine is in somewhat of a valley. Nonetheless, the views of Purity Lake are nice enough. By the looks of it, they could open tomorrow, however there is no reason to push out the snow for one day of skiing, especially with mild weather behind it.
