East Rattlesnake
Holderness, NH
Trailheads, measurements, times, distances, and maps are all approximate and relative to the hike(s) as shown below.
Up on the ridge near the viewpoint
Route: East Rattlesnake Trail
Lower portion of the trail was generally snow free (snow in adjacent woods) with a little bit of avoidable mud. Frozen granular elsewhere, but never more than maybe 1-3" deep. I was able to bareboot roundtrip without much of an issue, though some may prefer light traction for the descent.

Park outside the private property entranceway (don't block the road!), then follow the road up shortly, taking a left, then a right between two cabins.
