Comments
Comments: Scott needed the Tripyramids to grid out August. I needed Passaconaway and Whiteface. So why not do them together!?
Overall a delightful day since we were able to car spot. The less traveled trails (south Tri to Whiteface, Passaconaway Cutoff, Oliverian Brook) are in very good shape with some stretches having a great sponginess to them that was a nice break from more northern roots and rocks.

The only bad thing was a fun hiker who said my blue and yellow get up made me look like "Sunshine and Sky", which my knucklehead younger brother decided would be my new name. So that's just great.

Do this hike with a friend. Spot a car. It's a big day but totally worth it.
