East Mountain in Great Barrington, this one has been on the list for a long time! Wow! An exciting place with magnificent bus size boulders and a mountain climb suited for goats. Parking on the junction of Quarry and Pine Streets in a residential neighborhood so go early because the road was entirely full on our way out! An unblazed trail takes you along the base of this mountain with several footpaths leading up the mountain. We spent hours exploring here, not even getting to our intended hike which was at the official trailhead on Quarry Road on the Appalachian Trail. There is also an entrance on the same road at the town park. GPS or GAIA app is suggested which shows some of the trails. We will be back alot to hike here!
