Looking up the Gile Mountain Tower Trail
Route: Gile Mountain Tower Trail
Trail was mostly dry with some minor mud where they're currently constructing new steps. Leaves are down. Nice 360 views from the tall fire tower. Good perspective as the sun set into Pico Peak.

Directions to trailhead: From Exit 13 of I-91, take US 5 North into Norwich, continuing straight into the village (while US 5 turns right). Soon thereafter, take a left onto Turnpike Road. Turnpike Road eventually turns to dirt and will pass under high tension lines. The Gile Mountain Tower Trail parking lot and trailhead will eventually be on the left.
