Lake and App Gap to Camels Hump hike

Lamoille River: Put the kayak in 2-3 miles before the Lamoille reaches the lake at a ramp off of the islands highway exit. Paddled to the lake and then under the rt 2 bridge, Calm day with little to no wind so going out into the main lake was fine.

Appalachian gap to Camels hump. A 15 mile stretch of the long trail over Burnt Rock, Ira Allen, Ethan Allen, and Camels Hump mountains. About 4500 feet elevation gain. A seldom traveled part of the long trail ending at one of the most traveled mountains (Camels Hump). I think we saw 3 other people in the first 12.5 miles going to Camels Hump. We probably saw 50 people in the last 2.5 miles.
