Two of us had seen Moosehead and climbed
Kineo five years before, but it’s such a gorgeous place that we had to show it
off. We got to Rockwood just in time for the 12:00 ferry, i.e., the Mt. Kineo
Golf Course water shuttle pontoon boat. We ascended Mt. Kineo (which rises 700
feet straight out of the lake) via the Bridle Trail (moderate difficulty) as we
did last time, but descended (apparently inspired by our much younger
companions) via Indian Trail (very steep!). The views were of course
spectacular, and the clouds and occasional drizzle made no damper in our
enjoyment and in fact were gloried in by the recent returnees from droughty
California.
Dinner was had at the Stress Free Moose
Pub and Café in Greenville. Well, the beer was good.
No moose views on the trip back, in spite
of the signs south of Greenville warning of numerous car-moose collisions.
