Parker Mountain (1410') is in Strafford, New Hampshire. This mountain is a good
place to practice with snowshoes. I took the Mooers Loop Trail to the Link Trail to the
Spencer Smith Trail to the 10' cairn on the summit. The Mooers Loop Trail is an old
logging road and is easy to hike on. There was a tree across the trail that was difficult
to cross with snowshoes. Then I took the Link Trail up the side of Parker Mountain. This
trail is not too steep but it's not blazed that well. The Link ends at the Spencer Smith
Trail which is 0.3 miles from the summit cairn. There were no views from the summit but
there is a little ways past the cairn. I took a break on a ridge with views and headed
back on the Spencer Smith Trail down the mountain. It was overcast and warm for a January
day. The loop is only 2.7 miles but it is was an excellent hike.
