Next closest Seacoast steep climb to Agamenticus in Maine. This is a great trail for warming-up those old joints for steeper hikes, which is why it was strategically placed at the “foothills” of the White Mountains. Hikers tackle it year round and especially loved by blueberry pickers in summer.

Elevation: 1357 ft / 414 m

There are two routes to the summit and they both start from the same parking area. The fire road goes up the west side of Blue Job Mountain. The road runs through a number of of open fields which provide good views of the south and the west. The Blue Job Mountain Trail takes off from the parking area and travels the eastern face of the summit. This side is more forested with the best view on the way up is just below the summit with a semi-open view off to the east.

Rules: No motorized vehicles, but trail bikes allowed. No camping, no fires. Carry in / carry out. Amenities: Good trail marking that crosses some privately owned landed with permission. Fire tower and picnic area at summit. Blueberries in July.
Parking: Large parking area
Dogs: Yes, on leash.
Directions: The parking lot on First Crown Point Road is about five miles from US Route 202A. (Beware! This is NH and there is also Crown Point Road and Second Crown Point Road placed there especially to confuse out-of-towners by the ancient pioneers.)
