Filled this glaring hole in my hiking resume today. :) Nice little peaks, both with a great view. I liked Middle a little better, lots of open ledge to walk around on to different views. Interesting erratic boulders on the way up on both Trestle and Sugarloaf trails. Mt. Washington was looking pretty wintery at the summit, Mt. Adams as well. Foliage well past peak, last of the beech leaves holding on and turning golden brown to rusty in color. |
