Description
Where the trail re-enters the woods from the powerlines is the first lookout. You can see the long narrow pond below and also see all the way to Chaleur Bay near Eel River Bar. The trail gently climbs a long ridge with several more lookouts on your left. The trail ends at a lookout at the end of the ridge. The lookout looks up Chaleur Bay towards Campbellton. If the weather is clear you can see the peak of Sugarloaf Mountain in Campbellton poking above another flat topped hill straight off the end of the lookout.
