Boott Spur Trail follows the long ridge that forms the south wall of Tuckerman Ravine and affords fine views. Grades are mostly moderate but the trail has some rough footing. Much of this trail is above treeline and thus greatly exposed to any bad weather for a considerable distance.

source: White Mountain Guide, P 29
Access Info

This trail runs from Tuckerman Ravine Trail, near Pinkham Notch Visitor Center, to Davis Path near the summit of Boot Spur.
