FINALLY the perfect day for Isolation! Chris D and Whitney cleared the track, along with a group ahead of us, so by the time we six Northeast Peakbaggers hit the trail it was beautifully packed. See their reports for details. What a difference from my failed attempt two weeks ago when everything was drifted in. Many thanks to those who broke out the trail this week, and to our great group of hikers led by Matt D.
43 down, 5 to go for my winter 48! |
