A couple of days ago I attempted to climb Gore Mountain (the highpoint of Warren County) by the Schaefer Trail from the Snowbowl area. Neither the description in in CoHP book, nor that at the trail register, allowed me to find the start of the trail. There are many snowmobile and old ski trails leaving the trailhead, all unmarked.
Does any of the guidebooks give a good description of the start of the trail, preferably with a diagram? Can anyone give me specific instructions on finding it?
Though I did not get anywhere near the summit I had a great day going up an old downhill ski trail, with lots of blackberries along the sides. I probably established a personal record for amount of blackberries consumed in a single day, which beats getting one more peak
Note: I would much prefer going up a real hiking trail than going to the ski center and going up their trails.
