The Dome
== The Dome ==
===Trail Description===The Dome is that big mountain you see behind Mission if you're standing on Mission Hill. The hike primarily follows woods roads in various states of no longer being used. Near the top, it leaves these and becomes a rough trail through the woods. This hike is not often done, and the condition of the trail is a testament to this. The view from the top is, unfortunately, quite limited, but there are little pieces of views here and there. What you do get for your exertions is a beautiful sunny outcropping surrounded by evergreens. Since it is little-traveled, solitude is most likely to be found.  ===Getting There===To reach the trailhead, follow Route 7 North from campus over the Hoosic River. Turn at the second right onto Sand Springs Road. Take the first left. This is a weird intersection. Three roads branch off from it, all headed north of the road you're on, which officially becomes Bridges Road here. Anyway, you want the middle of the three branches. (Both the leftmost and the middle ones seem to be named Sand Springs Road.) When you come to a T intersection, turn left onto White Oaks Road, and follow this past Brook Road (on your left), across the Vermont border (there's a little marker and the road surface changes). Continue until you reach a parking area (probably beat up and littered) on the right just before cross a stream. If you come to a sharp turn to the left, you've gone too far. The trail starts here and heads out to the right of the road, through a field, and onto a woods road.
