 | Comments: |
A great day with the Chocorua Mountain Club (CMC), a group with deep roots on the lake and mountain. Four of us tackled Weetamoo and met up with a group coming up from Hammond. All took on the area above the Weet/Hammond junction which was reported to have massive blowdows. With the help of a former USFS fire sawyer/crew boss on the big saw, all were dispatched. |
