I think they went down Mt. Pleasant instead.

A watershed divide does not necessarily follow the highest terrain, however "highest" is defined, it just divides which way the water flows. If you wanted to stay on the highest ridge, from Washington you would go to Boott Spur instead of Monroe and thus down Montalban Ridge.Double Bow said:Hmmm... I guess I'm still missing it. The ridge does not descend to a point between these two watersheds, rather the elevation stays consistantly high until it descends down to the Saco River after going over Webster.
