Plan Around The Triad
A good stop is not just something to read about. Once it belongs on the day, move into a saved trip and build the route around it.
Use this detail page to confirm that the stop is worth it, then carry that decision into a trip draft while the park context is still fresh.
The Triad Details
The Triad has three peaks, although even the highest is relatively modest at 698 feet. The mountain is east of Seal Harbor and accessible via a number of trails leading to each high point. You can hike north along the Triad Trail as it heads up the mountain, and from there you'll reach the summit marker for the East Triad peak. From here, you can continue north until you cross the Hunter's Brook Trail, which passes the Middle Triad. Once you've done that, turn around and head south on the Hunter's Brook Trail at the intersection with the Triad Trail to reach the South Triad.
