Park at the trailhead on the Frost Valley Road just after Winisook Lake on the hairpin turn. Find
the yellow-blazed Phoenecia-East Branch trail and hike .65 miles to the blue-blazed Giant Ledge -
Panther Mountain Trail. This ascent is rather gradual with a few short, steep areas thrown in. After
about .75 miles, you reach Giant Ledge. Here there are a series of ledges that look to the east and
offer a view of Wittenberg and Slide. The return hike simply reverses the trip out. The total distance
is just over 3 miles making it perfect to get into shape.
