Starr King, Mt. Waumbek, Mt. Weeks, Mt. Cabot, The Horn, Rogers Ledge,. Unknown Pond, South Pond, and Bald Head Mtn, ending at the Devil's Rest Shelter just above Christine Lake. • -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Join the Trail Tribe as we embark on an autumn New England thru hiking adventure for the ages, filled with beauty, challenges, and lessons learned along the way. • About the trail: • The Cohos Trail is 170 miles of wilderness hiking from southern Crawford Notch in the White Mountain National Forest through the Great North Woods to the Canadian border at far-flung Pittsburg, NH. • The Cohos Trail was first envisioned in 1978. The founder, Kim Robert Nilsen, was working as a reporter for a small weekly newspaper called the Coos County Democrat at Lancaster, NH when he wrote an editorial about the concept for a long-distance trail through one million acres of forest in New Hampshire’s largest and most isolated county. • The idea languished for twenty years, but while on vacation in Maine, Nilsen revived the concept and began planning a trail route from Crawford Notch at the southern end of the county to the Canadian border 100 crow-fly miles away to the north. • Hundreds of volunteers, from children to people in the eighties have worked on the Cohos Trail over the years, and they are still at it today. The rest, they say, is history. • Many landowners, state officials, federal employees, local business people, school students, scouts, local camp owners, town officers, and many more have lent a helping hand. Almost everyone contacted and involved over the years has been enthusiastic and encouraging. Without their contributions, the Cohos Trail would not exist.
