Join us for a beautiful hike up to the fire tower at the summit of Mt. Cardigan. We will take the South Ridge / West Ridge loop that offers some fun ledges on the way up and a long alpine river with waterfalls to follow on the way back down. While the peak of Mt Cardigan is only 3,155' tall, it has extensive areas of bare granite ledges and alpine vegetation, with almost 2,000' of prominence, giving hikers gorgeous 360-degree views from the top!
Hike will operate with a minimum of four (4) participants. If the scheduled hike does not reach four or more participants, clients will be asked to reschedule to a later hike or can opt to be refunded for the missed hike.
