 But the 3,800-foot (1,158 m) summit is still some distance off, from Pecoy Notch, and the elevation gain to reach it comes in extremely small steps up.Only when the trail starts to slope down and side trails lead off to views similar to those available from Twin is it apparent the climb has been successful.In the next mile (1.6 km), the trail descends 1,600 vertical feet (488 m) to Mink Hollow.
