Second Pond Overlook is a tenth-mile spur off the main trail — a short pitch to an overlook above Second Pond. Mountain hiking grade; worth the detour if you're passing through.
Second Pond Overlook runs 0.1 miles (0.2 km) with about 46 feet of elevation gain — a moderate hike, with a moderate, steady climb, about 5 minutes on the trail. It is an informal, lightly marked path — carry a map and GPS.
