Baxter Mountain Trailhead.

Crossing a powerline gash.

Wide trail climbing slowly.

Meandering switchbacks led slowly up the slope.

The forest wasn't particularly inspiring in the lower portion of the hike.

The Baxter Mountain Trail then ascended more steeply to a junction.

A junction clearly stating where to go to reach Baxter Mountain.

The trail is steeper here.

And more eroded, where rocks and roots are exposed and the trail becomes a bit convoluted.

A nice view along the way.

More ascending on the steeper portion of trail.

Another nice view as I near the false summit of Baxter Mountain.

False summit just ahead, but this is the best the views will be for the hike.

Passing over the false summit and onward to the true summit.

A minor saddle separating the false summit from true Baxter Mountain.
