We originally planned to park at Sieur de Monts Spring, walk along the Tarn Path, and then climb up the ladder trail. Lack of parking at the Spring forced us to park south of the Tarn, and head straight up the Ladder Trail. This put us right into a strenuous climb, albeit up nicely groomed stairs. After the stairs there are some small ladder sections to get through, and then a nice easy stretch up to the summit.
From the summit, we started back down the way we came, but then turned off to the left on the Schiff Path and finally down Kurt Diederich's Climb. These are some of the nicest trails in the park!
Our final stretch was on the Kane Path, along the Tarn, where we had hoped to start. This provides a nice, up-close view of the Tarn and makes a nice end (or beginning) of this hike.
