Finished off not only the Northern NH region of the WMG, but my 52 With A View list as well! Sugarloaf Mountain Trail kicked our butts, with the HHH (hazy, hot, and humid) weather in full effect, and its relentless grades right to the top. Any rocks in the trail were greasy and required care on the way down... basically don't step on them unless you had to! Beautiful views from on and around the summit area, though limited by haze. Wind was whipping up top, which was a nice contrast to the still woods down low. Thanks to Mike for joining me on this one! |
