 | Comments: |
This was my 48th NH 4000-footer! (And the 47th for my two sons.) I carried champagne to the summit, which we shared with some other hiking parties. Pepper climbed right into my lap to congratulate me. It was quite cold and windy, and some wore gloves and hats. A great hike, and a great peak to finish on. |
