    Hiking

    'The Featherbed' is a small mountain lake in a depression along the 'Cadillac Mountain South Ridge Trail'. The lake is located in the middle of an alpine bog where lichens and marsh grasses grow.

    Hiking

    The Featherbed is a small tarn (mountain lake) nestled along the Cadillac South Ridge Trail. Water sources like the Featherbed, Sargent Pond, and The Tarn are useful tools for researchers studying ecology and climate change in the region. From here the trail splits in four cardinal directions. There is a bench near the water, and nearby shade makes a great place to escape the heat of the exposed trail on a hot summer's day.
