Frigid start today (3 degrees at trailhead). Didn't really warm up too much but the sun was out in full force! Skies stayed blue until mid afternoon then the clouds rolled in. A bit gusty at times.
Saw one other solo hiker then two gentlemen who were finishing up their NH 48. Congrats again guys!
Despite cold temps it was a great day to be out! |
