Great to hike with Scott again after so long away from the trails for him. Kicking off my winter season with the O's was a great choice. Isis hits 50 total peaks throughout New England and the journey continues. Snow is drifting up above and ice seems to hide under everything. By pass is full of ice so we took the chimney and did fine. Nice to run into Tuck again after seeing him on Lafayette a few weeks back. Thanks Scott for a great day. |
