As I usually do, I wanted to do a hike! And coming off the heels of our Lassen trip, I felt great about doing Mount Mansfield. I had planned on doing the Long Trail -> Haselton Loop which comes out to 6.1 mi round trip, and approximately 2,793 feet of elevation gain. This gets you to the highest point in Vermont as an added bonus. I believe if you aren’t interested in a steep death climb up the mountain you can ride the gondola up to the ride which would save you first half of this grueling hike.
