Hike Tom Jones Mountain with return via Parker Cabin Mountain
November 8, 2025 @ 9:00 am - 2:00 pm
Starting at Camp, we will take the unmarked trail north alongside Sebago until we meet with the yellow triangle trail. We’ll turn right and follow the trail for 1.15 miles to the intersection with the blue Victory trail.
We’ll make another right turn and follow the trail for about 1.8 miles, past Lake Skenonto and to the intersection with the red Ramapo Dunderberg trail.
After turning right onto the R.D. Trail we will find us on a short but steep ascend to the top of Tom Jones mountain. This is a great spot to take a break and have a snack.
We will descent the same way we came up but instead of turning onto the Victory trail, we’ll stay on the R.D. After .55 miles we reach the summit of Parker Cabin Mountain with nice views to enjoy.
We’ll descent Parker Cabin Mountain on the yellow Triangle trail on which we will stay for a little over 2 mile until we turn left into the unmarked camp trail that’s will take through the “back entrance” to Camp Nawakwa.
This hike features several ascents and descents, and the pace will be a little faster than usual.
Approx. total ascend 728 feet
Distance: Approx. 5.5 miles
