 | Comments: |
Great hike up Little Haystack Mountain with the Boston College Outdoor Adventures Club. We left Boston at 6, got to the trail at 9. Trail was packed nicely all the way up and began to steepen at the last fork. Weather on top was not the best; no visibility and wind chill at -20. Goggles were a must. Overall, great hike though, the extreme weather at the top made the summit all the more redeeming and satisfying. |
