Comments
Comments: Decided to do some peak bagging towards my 48. Since I'm not a true peak bagger I decided to add some mileage and suffering ;)

Without boring all to death I think the best part of the hike was the western side of Tecumseh. Beautiful moss/fern covered forest. Great footing and moderate/runable grades.

Tried to run as much of this as I could. Bonked hard at 15ish miles on the hilly Greely Pond dirt rd. What a mess. 20.4 miles total.
