The East Spur Overlook in Baxter State Park is just off of the Horse Mountain Trail and is the first main overlook you can hike to after entering through the northern entrance of the park. The overlook is close to the summit of Horse Mountain, but the peak, itself, has no view. You get a great view of Grand Lake Matagamon and the Mount Chase area.
