Mt. Katahdin via Knife Edge Trail
Start the hike at Roaring Brook Campground and follow the Chimney Pond Trail for 3.3 miles one-way (Elevation gain 1,425 ft).
Upon reaching the Chimney Pond Campground, we re-watered and started up Dudley Trail for a short, but steep 1.3 miles one-way (Elevation gain to Pamola Peak 1,988 ft). No water is available on this trail, and it is above the treeline.

Mt. Katahdin via Chimney Pond and Saddle Trails

From the park's South Gate, Kidney Pond is about an hour's drive along the Park Tote Road heading Northwest. Once on Kidney Pond Road, stay straight at the turn and it will bring you directly to the parking lot. The main trailhead is in front of the parking lot. T...
