Kebo Mountain Trail Details

Kebo Mountain Trail (formally known as the Dorr Mountain North Ridge Trail) climbs south over Kebo Mountain's short summit before traversing a smaller, unnamed hump, and ascending over the bare ledges of Dorr Mountain's north ridge to the summit. The steep trail, which is relatively unremarkable in it's few granite steps, rocky knobs, and pitch pines, has some of the island's most immediate vistas with views of Frenchman Bay and the Porcupine Islands to the northwest, Cadillac Mountain's north ridge to the west, and, at times, the Dorr Mountain summit to the south.
