Today, the Long Tail stretches 272 miles from Massachusetts to Canada, crossing the highest peaks of Vermont's Green Mountains. It also features 166 miles of side trails and 70 backcountry campsites.
At the southern end of the Long Trail lies the tallest peak in Massachusetts, Mount Greylock. This mountain was once referred to as Grand Hoosuc or Saddleback by Abenaki people, Elnu Abenaki Tribe public liaison Rich Holschuh writes on the Green Mountain Club website.
