A connector trail in the High Peaks wilderness, this path threads just over two miles through terrain that links several junctions and extends access deeper into the network. The route is marked first with red disks from the RoosterComb/Flume Brook junction to the Flume Brook/Crossover junction, then shifts to blue disks as it continues toward the RoosterComb/Hedgehog/Flume Brook junction. Maintained by NYSDEC, the trail functions less as a destination than as a utilitarian strand in the web of approaches to surrounding peaks and valleys.

What to do, where to stay, and what's reopening across the Park as the snow melts and the calendar fills.

A complete planning guide: difficulty by peak, common combo days, seasonal realities, and a sortable, filterable table of every summit.

Brook trout streams that have been here since the glaciers, lake trout in two hundred feet of cold water, smallmouth on every shoreline — and a sortable atlas of every major water in the Park.
