The Link, Lowe's Path, Gray Knob Cabin (for night of 11/25), HIncks, Amphibrach, Link
Lowe's Path very icy beginning about 1/2 mile below Log Cabin up to cutoff for Gray Knob (used microspikes, but wish I had carried crampons for that part of Lowe's). Amphibrach is way to both ascend and descend. Never made to summit, as too cold up there without enough daylight remaining. About 5 inches of show up by Gray Knob now, less below Great to meet Elizabeth and her dog, Katahdin, and wonderful to be up there with cousin, Peter, and brother, Jim |
