Activity description
The Morgan-Percival Loop is a fun hike in the Lakes Region popular for its extensive views of Squam Lake and Lake Winnipesaukee from two open, rocky summits. Many prominent peaks around the lakes can be seen. In addition, sections of the trail and Mt. Percival's summit offer views to the White Mountains. Most of the trail is easy to moderate, but just below both summits, you have the option of an adventurous climb up ladders, through caves, and over cliffs. Two trails in this loop are part of Terrifying 25 list, so the effort should not be underestimated. If this is your first ridj-it trip, please post your recent hiking experience in the comments before joining.
