Grace Peak (East Dix) via Spotted Mountain Hike and Bushwhack
From Route 73, this route generally follows the South Fork of the Boquet River and along the exposed mountain ridge to Spotted Mountain and Grace Peak, providing excellent views. The South Fork of the Boquet River can be found along Rt 73 just after the Route 9 intersection where there is a small pull-off on the left to park. The route starts on the left side of the parking area along a steep bank, generally following the river although often not in sight until the herd path returns and we follow it a short distance to a fork, where we'll go in-between the two river branches and head west to a ridge and up a few scrambles to Elizabethtown #4 and mostly open ridgeline created by the Great Fire of 1903. Continuing along the ridge in a south/southwest direction we'll reach Spotted Mountain and more open views, and continue along the ridge to our final destination, Grace Peak (East Dix). There are some spots of very thick Balsam along the way, but also many open areas with excellent open views. Plan on a full day…
