| Description |
This is a short hike starting on Kolker Main. We will briefly follow a logging road, a short connector and a mossy bluff to Heron Point for great views of Hyacinthe Bay and the Chinese Mtn area. From there we will take a cairned route through forest trails and rocky bluffs to Mt. Sweat. We descend to Kolker Main and return to the vehicles on the logging road. This is a view hike and will not be done in poor weather. About 4 km; 2½ hours. |

Heriot Bay store parking lot. We will drive out in a group. |
