Decided to tray and knock off a bunch of peaks in the area as it is a long haul to get to Maine from SO. New Hampshire. Unfortunately, I was hiking the area that they are currently searching for a missing Thru Hiker (Inchworm). She had been missing for 48 hours at the time of this hike. Accompanied by the whistles of the rescue workers and the rotors of the helicopter, I managed to get these two peaks in. I skipped Redington because rescue was busy enough. |
