The 1903 BHVIA 14th An. Rpt, Report of the Committee on Roads and Path by Waldron Bates, Chairman, states, "Two new paths have been made, the Chasm Brook Trail and the Sargent Brook Trail.  The latter on the western slope of Sargent's Mountain in a little brook which runs through big boulders, between high cliffs, opening up one of the remarkable bits of rock work on the Island, a great slab of granite cut by nature from the mountain side, which at some time slid off the mountain and now stands on edge by the bank of the brook, the upper end resting against the mountian slope, leaving a long gallery at the base, between the great sheet of granite and the mountain side, through which one can walk beneath this grand roof of stone.  This trail starts on the old Northeast Harbor road not far from the junction of that road with the road to Northeast Harbor which skirts the Sound.
