White Cap Mountain, Mountain summit in Piscataquis County, Maine, US.
White Cap Mountain reaches an elevation of 3,654 feet with steep initial ascent followed by gradual slopes leading to the summit viewing points.
The mountain has maintained its position as the final significant elevation gain for Appalachian Trail hikers before reaching Mount Katahdin since trail establishment.
The mountain stands as part of the New England Fifty Finest peaks, drawing regular visits from hiking communities tracking notable summits.
Visitors access the mountain through Frenchtown Road, with parking spaces available along the roadside near the Second West Branch Pond trailhead.
