 | Comments: |
A New Hampshire 500 highest peak. I followed West Ridge Trail up to the South Ridge Trail-Rimrock Split, following a bare-booter path on Skyland Trail, out and back. After Rimrock I continued down into the col and eventually ascended to the wind-blown ledges of Orange. Lot's of postholes from the bare-booter, but snowshoes were floating good. It's a nice approach with a stunning view of Cardigan to the North. Not a soul on the trail. |
