Stowe Pinnacle
About
Stowe Pinnacle is a summit in Vermont, about 3 miles from the town of Stowe. The warmest stretch runs from June through September. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Worcester range from highs near 77°F in July to about 68°F with lows around 48°F in September. That station sits roughly 1,300 feet below the summit, so temperatures up top run cooler. Several trails start close by. The Hogback Trail is about 0.1 mile away, the Pinnacle Meadow Trail about 0.6 mile, and the Stowe Pinnacle Trail just over a mile. For time on the water, the Little River is a canoeing option about 3 miles off.
