Ascent of Magalloway Mountain on 2012-06-09| Other People: | Solo Ascent
| | Date: | Saturday, June 9, 2012 | | Ascent Type: | Successful Summit Attained | | Motorized Transport to Trailhead: | Car | | Peak: | Magalloway Mountain | | Location: | USA-New Hampshire | | Elevation: | 3383 ft / 1031 m |
Ascent Trip Reportdirections to trailhead in the AMC guide and in previous posts are correct. All turns starting at Rt3 are signed "tower".
I was a bit concerned because the USGS maps indicate that the last 3 miles of road before the trailhead are "4WD", but it was easily passable in my civic, despite being a bit rough in spots.
Ascent trail (Coot Tr) a bit wet but in pretty good shape for a straight-up-the-mountain former jeep road. Descent trail (Bobcat Tr) has better footing. Great views from tower, but amazing clifftop views on the side path to the N.
