Granddaughter and I hiked the Canty Trail to Blue Ridge Mountain near Killington, Vt one beautiful summer day. Round trip is approx 4.9 miles. It is listed as moderate, but some parts are quite steep. They suggest 2.5 to 3.5 hours, we did it in a little less. Elevation at peak is 3278 ft. You have to look closely on Old Turnpike Road to see the entrance sign for the hike. It is not highly marked. There is a small pull off for cars. Nice trail that starts off somewhat level for awhile in a nice forest setting. Streams are crossed on sturdy logs and bridges. As the climb begins up the mountain there are rock steps built into the trail. About one mile in there is a beautiful cascade falls to the left of the trail that is well worth a visit. Granddaughter climbed all around this feature and was enthralled with it. As you climb the forest gives way to more coniferous growth. At the top, the summit is a round rock outcropping that is totally surrounded by brush and trees affording no view whatsoever. Nearby, is a spur trail that takes you to an overlook that is just wonderful. You look toward Rutland and all down the valley south. Loads of mountains in view and possibly even the Adirondacks. We had a snack there and took a selfie. She and I do enjoy moving quickly down trails, still being careful but letting gravity take over, thus we got down pretty fast. A nice lunch at Sushi Yoshi on the mountain road in Killington rounded out our adventure very nicely.
