I spent the first weekend in November doing some exploring in the Inlet area. It's an area that I haven't spent much time so I spent the weekend climbing some of the popular routes: Bald (Rondaxe), Rocky and Black Bear Mountains.
These are all short trails, but after checking them out, I would say that they shouldn't be missed. Bald (Rondaxe) has a nice rock spine, and of course great views from the firetower. Rocky Mountain offers an incredible back for the buck with great views after a 0.5 mile walk. Black Bear offers several loop options and an expansive rock summit with distant views to some of the high peaks.
