Out for some redlining today. The "view" at the end of the summit view spur was a fabulous 180 degree breath of mountains from Franconia Ridge, to the Presidentials, to Carrigain / Vose, to Sawyer Pond... to Bear Mt. Just fabulous.
I explored the old Camp Rich area by the springs... and had never noticed the sign for the toilet box still up there on the hill above the tenting area.
It had been years since I was last on Square Ledge... that was fun.
Bumped into Betsy W. on the trail...nice day out! |
