| Comments: |
The Bolles was unnexpectedly nice except for the PUD going up to 2400 and back down, but still....no big deal. Bee Line is also an interesting and picturesque trail. All things considered a good alternative to the overcrowded usual trails to Chocorua. The temperature and wind was just perfect. We only had one other climber at the summit for lunch, then the crowds started arriving as we left. Good timing. |
