Mt Katahdin is Maine's highest peak at 5,269ft. I decided to re-tackle this peak via the Knife Edge trail which is one of the most exposed hikes in all of New England. This is a fun class 2 scramble with a section of class 3 hiking. With beautiful weather, I decided to add on Hamlin Peak as well for 11 miles of hiking with about 4,600ft of elevation gain.
