This mountain creates confusion, being on two different
lists and meaning two very different hiking objectives:
1. Hike to Black Mountain shoulder and back:
2757 feet high (1500 feet up)
3 miles 3 hours (easy)
via Black Mountain Ski Trail
2. Hike to Black Mountain summit and back:
(NH 3000-Footers)
3404 feet high (1800 feet up)
6 miles 6 hours (difficult)
via Bog Brook Trail and bushwhack
