This is a well kept trail. Very well marked. Most of the trail is easy to moderate for the average hiker. Several short sections give the choice to challenge yourself or go around the obstacle.

There are 2 trails to the top. The winter trail (blue) zig zags while the main trail (white) goes fairly straight up through boulders and up small cliffs. It is a tough climb with backpacks, but we were beginners and enjoyed it. Note, once at the top the white trail follows a detour and deviates from what is shown on Google maps. The clearing we were told to use foe camping was not accessible.

It's a tough climb from here NOBO on the main AT Trail. Consider the Winter Trail if you're not comfortable rock scrambling and climbing, or if its raining. In FarOut the most difficult part is where the observation point is marked. About 100 feet where you need to take your time, plan where to put your feet and hands, and keep your center of balance leaning forward. The rewards are great views and a feeling of accomplishment at the top.

Great hike! We enjoyed counter clockwise so that we climbed up the rocky hill rather than coming down.
