Bushwhack to Ledges Located SSE of Shelburne Trail (NH)

In mid-February, I did a short bushwhack to ledges located a few tenths of a mile SSE of the Shelburne Trail.  This littleadventure was a perfect fit for the compressed time frame available to me on that particular day.  Below is a map composite.  The left panel shows my route of travel for this short trek
(about 3.6 miles round-trip).


As seen in the next photo, the crossing conditions of Connor Brook looked rather sketchy.  So, I opted to launch the bushwhack from Corridor 19 snowmobile trail rather than from the Shelburne Trail which would have entailed crossing the brook.


The vista from the ledges extends from Gammon and Caribou Mountain (far left) to East and West Royce (far right).


The photo shown below was taken while peering down from the edge of one of the ledges.


The next photo shows the type of open-woods that were encountered throughout most of my route to the ledges.
