Comments
Comments: Beautiful sunrise hike of Mt Washington and Southern Presidentials. Very low wind(so calm I could smell breakfast and bacon cooking from Observatory)and mild temperatures today.The trails were for the most part bare with partially frozen puddles and water flows at upper elevations. Im glad I had micros packed but there was no need for them today. There was quite a bit of water flowing on the Crawford Path descending from Mt Pierce as well. It was nice chatting with Ed and thanks for the M&M's!
