Looking up the old logging road to Ladd Mountain
Route: Unknown trail
With a break in the rain, I headed over to Ladd Mountain for a quick jog. As expected, the trail was a bit wet and muddy from the hours of rain.
From the summit, there were slight views of Winnisquam - better than nothing at all.

The start of the logging road off Chemung Road
Looking through the fog at Winnisquam Lake from the Ladd Mountain ledge vista
Directions to trailhead: Take Route 104 East from I-93 in New Hampton. Shortly after passing Wickwas Lake on the right, take a right onto Meredith Center Road. Shortly thereafter, take a right onto Chemung Road. A few minutes later, take a right to stay on Chemung Road (where Camp Waldron Road goes straight). Awhile after the road turns to dirt, Randlett Pond will be visible on the right. On the left, there will be a blocked off logging road with limited room for parking. The trail starts on the logging road.
