Part of a multi-day trek with Knee Deep to pick up a piece of the AT in Maine that we were missing. Trail is very wet and muddy, eroded in places & blowdowns come at the least convenient time - an adventure for sure. Take it all in with a dose of humor and the realization that unless you wear a cape, you ain't flying over this stuff. Old Blue is a nice spot for a quick lunch and look back at East Baldpate. Many more recognizable mountains in the area. |
