      The middle brother of the three North Shore mountains, Mount Fromme is considered as the crown jewel of the Shore. The mandatory climb up the mountain highway ensures limited use, but rewards those who are willing to persevere up the winding switchback access road. If you want a real challenge, try a grind up the new Fromme Ascent but be forewarned, it is not for the faint of heart. Easy to navigate given its concentrated trail network, you will find surprises around every corner and descent.

      Mt. Fromme trails cannot be shuttled. A majority of the trails have a dedicated builder working with the NSMBA and DNV to ensure a great trail network. Additionally the NSMBA holds regular trail days on the more popular trails.
