Our last stop this day, Osceda Mountain elevation 1,785. This spur trail from the summit of Mahanna Cobble is about 1.5 miles each way, taking hikers to the top of Bousquet Ski for outstanding views, follow the trail North to the Northernmost end of the Yokun Ridge.
We set out in Pittsfield to tackle the North Yokun Ridge on the High Road starting at Bousquet Ski. A kiosk in the parking lot marks the Northernmost end of the High Road Trail. Here is also the trailhead for the Mahanna Cobble Trail which climbs to 1,896 feet of elevation at the summit in just two miles. The climb crosses two ski trails before it enters the woods. A natural spring crosses the trail,there is very little water on the Yokun Ridge. At the summit, glorious views and the infamous George Wislocki bench (founder of the Berkshire Natural Resources Council) greets you with views of the entire Yokun Ridge, Monument Mountain and the Taconics. We continued on here South on the High Road Trail.
