That is a nice hike, but rather exposed if the weather goes off. The 1st 1/4 is a flat walk in. The next 2 1/4s are a steady climb with no breaks. The last 1/4 is above tree line. Clouds can set in quick. Great views though. Maybe a bit much for the 9 yr. old.
The Dickie -Walsh loop is nice, but usually mobed. I'm still a fan of the Sandwich, Wonalaonsett trails, as they're very quiet. Not as well maintained, but that's ok too.
