Comments
Comments: Was a nice 5+ mile walk with nice views in the morning while the Presidentials were still socked in. As the afternoon got warmer, snow began to stick to the Micro=spikes. Had done this loop before doing Peaked first and Middle last. The views from the ledges on Peaked are much easier to enjoy when you do Middle first and descend Peaked.
