Michael (Mike) Schwartz's Ascent of Bowling Green Mountain (1381 feet)

Stats

Trip Report: To reach this summit, drive 0.6 miles north of the Mahlon Dickerson Reservation picnic area entrance on Weldon Road to a gated entrance to a former ski area. This is now an undeveloped section of the reservation and is open to hiking. Park near the gate and hike across the large open area toward the mountain. Drop down slightly at the end of the open area and take any of several old ski trails or jeep roads directly up Bowling Green Mountain. The jeep road I took crested the mountain very near the summit, which I thought was a large, climbable boulder just off the crest. Hike to the summit takes about 15-20 minutes.
