Mount Cabot

Mount Cabot is a 4,170-foot mountain located in Coös County, New Hampshire. It is the highest peak in the Pilot Range of the White Mountains and the northernmost of New Hampshire's 48 four-thousand footers. Mount Cabot is named (indirectly) for the Cabot family or possibly the explorer John Cabot, and it lies within the Kilkenny region of the White Mountain National Forest. The mountain is heavily forested. Its summit has a clearing (where a fire lookout tower once stood) but only obstructed views; however, nearby viewpoints on the trail, such as Bunnell Rock, offer nice vistas to the south and east.
