⛰️ Mt Jo
Total length 2.5mile | Climbing 711ft | Loop design
You can walk clockwise or counterclockwise! There are two routes to choose from when going up the mountain:
🔸 Short term: Full sweating mode! Most of them are large rocks (Figure 3), and there are a few sections that require the use of both hands and feet (possibly my food) 😂) But it's super fun!
🔸 Long line: The slope is much gentler~When we went down the mountain, we happened to be two hours before sunset, and the light and shadow in the forest were beautiful (Figure 2/4), with each leaf shining brightly ✨
After reaching the summit, the panoramic view of Heart Lake will be directly deified (Figure 1/5/6)! Although the red leaves may not be as stunning this year, the sense of achievement after hiking is full when gazing at the mountain peaks [drinking milk tea R]. Walking down the mountain and strolling to the lake (Figure 8/9), the soft light at sunset is too dazzling
The overall difficulty is super beginner friendly! Encountering numerous families with children walking their dogs 🐕 Strongly recommend going counterclockwise: first conquer the steep slope, and your knees will thank you when you descend the mountain! We have plenty of parking spaces when we arrive at 3 o'clock. Personally tested, either rush early or late. Alltrails is the most clever. See Figure 10/11 for detailed data
Come to Lake Placid to chase the sisters of Maple Leaf! If you want to experience a trail that gives you a perfect score without getting too tired, just close your eyes and head towards this one 💨
