Hello there,
I was looking at hiking Katahdin (Baxter peak) via the Hunt trail next summer, departing at Katahdin Stream Campground. I am trying to compare with other trails that I have done to give me an idea of hiking time and difficulty. I have done a few peaks, such as Mt Washington via Tuckerman Ravine (8mi, 4300 ft climb in about 7 hrs) and Lafayette, (Old Bridle path). As I am not sure about the altitude gain, and knowing the trail is 5.1mi: how much time should I plan, and are my previous hikes comparable in difficulty ?
Thanks,
Kernel
