Rock Rimmon State forest – I made a quick trip up to Danville NH to check out the remains of the fire tower on the summit of Rock Rimmon. I parked at the Opal/Emerald road junction where the jeep road to the summit is located. The road is a bit rough but it is only about 8/10ths of a mile and 150’ of climb to the top. The open summit had a nice view of the surrounding forest and the tower footings remain where the fire tower once stood. There is a lot of trash and broken glass on the summit and when I was up there I spotted a group who had lit a huge bonfire in the woods. On my run down I detoured to the “orange blaze” trail and it was much more scenic including a boardwalk along the swamp. Including time on the summit the entire trip took me less than 20 minutes.
