Lowe's Bald Spot Trail?

[WhiteMTHike]

Greetings -

I am staying at the Joe Dodge Lodge on the 4th of July and would like to hike this trail with my 13 year-old son. He has hiking experience and has hiked Tuckerman's with me with no trouble. This year we would like to hike something different and I chose Lowe's Bald Spot. My question is, have any of you hiked it? What did you think? Is it a good trail to do with an experienced teen? Everything I have read about it is positive but I always value the experiences from the people on this board. I would value any feedback.


Thanks.

It's a very gentle trail. If he has done Tuckerman he might find this too easy!

Thank You. It should be a good hike.

I'd second that opinion, it's a nice trip, not too hard.

Pretty much flat to gentle. Going to be tame compared to Tuck's.
