Comments
Comments: Hiked Mt. Galehead Saturday for #25/48. This is another one of the few hikes that doesn't get the recognition I now feel it deserves. No, there aren't 360 degree views from an open summit, but as with every one of the previous 24 peaks I've reached the summit of so far, there's plenty of uniqueness and greatness to take in. Saw lots of great people today, plenty of happy, friendly dogs, and a beautiful 10+ miles of hiking. (oh, and another amazing piece of AMC carrot cake!!) Officially on the less-than-half-way-to-go side of the journey now.
