The collection of artifacts or minerals is prohibited.

This trail starts from the trailhead off Bents Road and follows red blazes. The trailhead and trail is signed as Mountain Trail. It follows a series of woods roads and logging roads until it reaches a singletrack. Here, the trail scrambles over a rocky and eroded climb to the summit. *At one time, the Ossipee Mountains were an active volcano; notice the small air pockets, from escaped gases, in the surrounding rocks. The trail arrives at the summit of Sentinel Mountain, where one is rewarded with excellent views.
