Congratulations to my friend Jeremy for completing his NH 4Ks. Unfortunately we did not have any views as the clouds were around 4300'. We did encouner a brief shower and a small amout of frozen precip that was barely noticeable. Met two others on the trail that we directed to the summit. When they offered us a beer I told them that we had brought some Dogfish Head of our own to celebrate!
