We were able to travel 20 miles from The Morton Cutoff to Lincoln Pond Rd to Green Top Rd to within 1/2 of Wiggle Brook. The road had been plowed after Thursday's big storm (I called the logging company) but later flurries laid down another 6 to 10 inches. This made the driving a little white knuckley. From our parking spot we traveled the road, herd paths and bushwacked to the summit.
100 NEHHW!
This one was a hard get for me considering it's a relatively easy summit. Several sets of plans fell through for various reasons including a head on collision but today it all came together and I finished my NEHHW. It was a delightful day, breaking out 6-12 inches and more in drifts with good friend. Zack and my favorite adventure partner, Joanie. |
