Rattlesnake Mountain, Raymond Maine

Prepare for like 5 Maine posts. It’s just so amazing in the summer and I would advise everyone to visit at least once.

The first day I was there we hiked up Rattlesnake Mountain. It maybe took us like a half hour to get to the top, but it wasn’t bad as long as you watched your footing. It gets pretty steep and rocky for the most part.

It’s a pretty view from the lookout spot. You can sit in the grass and see the rain clouds over all of the lakes sprinkled around the landscape. It looks like the trail continues to your right, which I think it does? However, we tried to go on it and the trail we went on kind of died out awkwardly into some bushes. A couple who went on it like ten minutes before us never came back.. so we’re going to assume they ended up somewhere and aren’t still wondering around the mountain.

We even repurposed one of Will’s childhood toys to make a makeshift cooler. If that’s not being resourceful I don’t know what is.
