Nutting Hill
About
Nutting Hill is a summit in north-central Massachusetts, about 6.2 miles from the town of South Ashburnham. Summer and early fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from the Ashburnham N weather station, 3.5 miles away, run from highs near 79°F in July to about 71°F in September. That station sits lower than the summit, so temperatures up top run cooler. Watatic Summit, a hike, and the Cascade Trail, a ski touring route, are both half a mile away. The Former Wapack Trail is 4.7 miles off, across the line in New Hampshire. For climbing, Gem Boulder is 6.5 miles away.
