Me and Shay enjoyed our hike. I put snowshoes on at the car assuming there was snow, much to my surprise it was still boney out and they were a hindrance ,not a help,off they came in the switchbacks. Went to spikes, although it was probably bare bootadable, I'm just not taking any more diggers for awhile, so I'm punching holes into whatever is under me. Shay got his #21st peak for round two of the 52wav list. We planned on Waumbec. but I went to bed at 100am and 4 hours sleep didn't help, Shay cut me some slack for extra beef jerky, he drives a hard bargain. WE will be back out on Christmas, hopefully run into Santa, haha. |
