Description Suggest change

Beautiful views from the top, especially at sunrise! Straightforward access: about 20-30 min. on a well-marked trail, nice climbs.

Bring 50-60 ft of rope or sling for setting top ropes if that's your intention.

Getting There Suggest change

Park on Ledge Road, about 1/2 mile south of View Rd. where there's a very small pull-out on the west side. (alternately, park at the Plainville Reservoir parking; see Fire Wall for instructions on obtaining permit; and walk back north on Ledge Rd to the trailhead.

Look on the east side of the road for the path; there may be a bit of wetness crossing the drainage ditch.

See "Bradley Mtn Sketch Map": Hike up the path, which shortly makes a 90-degree turn left, then 90-degree right and climbs up somewhat steeply and then flattens out. Continue on the path/trail as it starts to swing around to the right (south) and crosses the "summit" of Sunrise. Descent paths on either side.

Nichols' "Blue Book" lists 31 climbs.
