Route Guidance
Trail Overview
Sawteeth is the jagged Lower Great Range summit above Lower Ausable Lake, usually climbed from AMR by the practical Weld Trail or the rougher Scenic Route. It can stand alone as a strong High Peaks day or connect naturally to longer Lower Great Range plans.
Cautions
Sawteeth is an AMR access hike, so reservation rules and private-easement restrictions matter. The Scenic Route is slower and rougher than the Weld Trail, and either route can be slippery or slow in wet, icy, or low-visibility conditions.
