 | Comments: |
It was a fine day out on a lovely mountain. I'm still easing back into hiking after injuring myself, so this fit that bill very well. While I look forward to blasting up Chemin des Dames, that shouldn't happen for at least a few more weeks. In any case, Sunapee has great views from White Ledge, though the trees are a bit too bushy to afford a clean shot toward Chocorua. You can, however, see out to Pack Monadnock, and over to Red Hill pretty easily.
Photos and a more detailed write-up are on my blog. |
