This has only happened to me three times while hiking, all on this trail too, there was one lone random shoe on the trail. I am not sure if aliens are abducting people, they are getting raptured, or the enter the Twin Mountain-Bermuda Triangle, never to return. |

 | Comments: |
A fine day on to be on Hale. Roadwalk was uneventful and quick, as was North Twin Trail. Nothing of note on any trails, snow entered right about 2100. Light, little to no accumulation on our trek out and back, possibly a half inch by 12 oclock. Bareboot all day. When we left, it was 33 and snowing north of the Notch, 37 and rain south of the notch. At the time of this posting (1630) its 37 and raining just south of the Notch. It has not changed over at this time, atleast at low elevations. |
