    I'd say it was a bit easier of a hike than Goodnow, with somewhat less impressive views. Which is not to say that the views from Swede are bad by any measure, it just doesn't have that same 360 degree panorama with the High Peaks up close.

    (Of course, in that regard Goodnow pales in comparison to Adams still...)

        So how do you cross the little outlet of the pond to get to the beginning of the climb?

          With low water flow conditions, like now, step across some rocks. When I climbed May 3 this year it was easy though possibly more water overflowing North Pond.
