rough section of the Lawrence Trail to Mount Paugus in New Hampshire

I did a solo loop over Mount Paugus (3198-ft) and Mount Mexico (2020-ft; Sandwich Range, NH) via the Cabin, Lawrence, Old Paugus and Big Rock Cave trails in August 2003. This section of the Lawrence Trail is aptly described as "extremely steep and rough" by the AMC Guide. I do the 0.3-mile bushwhack to Paugus' wooded summit; but this is unnecessary if you just want the ledge view.
