Knife Edge to Northern Terminus of AT

The Knife Edge Trail is perhaps the most spectacular trail in New England - and also the most dangerous. Mt Katahdin’s Baxter Peak is the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail. We were 6 ½ hours into our hike of rock strewn, rugged and prolonged steepness on the Dudley trail. We finally ascended Chimney Peak to reach the start of the 1.1 mile high Knife Edge Trail. I strapped my GoPro HERO3+ Black Edition - Adventure to my chest to record our two hour breath-taking spectacular view crossing of the Knife Edge Trail. This short 1 ½ minute video is but a peek into the Knife Edge challenge.
