 | Comments: |
What a spectacular day. We took Mount Kinsman trail up to KRT then across to North and South Kinsman. Very little wind on North. South was a different story. We could only hang around for a few minutes on South Kinsman. The wind chill was brutal. It was the first time this winter that I needed to put a mask on to protect my face from frostbite. All the trees on top were like being in a Dr Seuss book. |
