A moderately steep summit trail from the notch between South and North Bubble Mountains, north over the summit of North Bubble, then north along ridge and over Conner's Nubble to west shore of Eagle Lake. At south end, trail starts with log cribbing to terraced steps and checks, to pinned and not pinned slab and set-behind steps. Retaining walls, steps, and iron introduced in 1992. This end of the trail is heavily used by visitors heading for Bubble Rock, ranging from 2 - 6' wide.’ After the trail turns to North Bubble, tread alternates between granite ledge and pine and scrub meanders. Trail has some sections of stone steps and follows blue blazing to summit. In 1992 the trail ascending North Bubble was overhauled and rerouted in spots to ledge outcroppings to avoid heavily eroded areas and many new steps were added. Summit has outstanding views of Jordan Pond. Near summit are 4 old slab laid steps onto a ledge that are seldom used and origin undated. The trail then alternates with ledge and woods as it descends into wooded area south of Eagle Lake Carriage Road. There is a short section of stone paving, origin undetermined. Section over Conners Nubble includes some steps, outside wall, and stone paving. Portions are highly eroded. The route varies in scenery and views and connects to many other trails, offering opportunities for loops. KJ, DK, SB, MB, GJS
