Middle Carter (4,610 feet)

Middle Carter from the Carter-Moriah Trail north of South Carter

Middle Cater is located on the Appalachian Trail and has limited views to the east and north from it's mostly wooded summit.  The hike to and from the summit is probably only interesting to peak-baggers looking to knock off one of the 48 - 4,000 footers.  There are a couple of good views of the Presidential Range and surroundings areas between South and Middle and North and Middle Carter.  The two ways to reach the summit of Middle Cater are both off NH16 from the Nineteen-Mile Brook Trailhead via Nineteen-Mile Brook, Cater Dome, and Carter-Moriah Trails, or the Imp Trailhead, via The Imp, North Carter, and Carter-Moriah Trails.
