Fantastic day with fantastic weather. Blue sky day with hardly no wind. Went up cathedral trail which was awesome and very challenging. Fun scrambles with a little ice and traces of snow. Sun wasn't hitting that side while going up. Still doable and the views were incredible. Baxter was crowded but didn't care with the unbelievable visibility. Could see the Bigelows with no problem. Went over and peaked Hamlin, again awesome views. Went down Hamlin ridge trail for the loop. Number 61 & 62. Met a couple coming off of Hamlin who completed their NE 67, congratulations ✌ðŸ»ï¸âœŒðŸ»ï¸ |
