This hike brought us to Pack Monadnock Mountain in Peterborough, NH, #26 on the list of 93 fire towers that are standing, once stood or were proposed. This was our 3rd time hiking this mountain, but we had never videoed it. We ascended on the Wapack Trail and descended on the Marion Davis Trail. The Wapack is steeper with more rock scrambles. It makes for a very nice loop. The views from the tower were pretty good today and the crowd wasn’t too bad. LOL
We did post a video of the hike for anyone interested in seeing the adventure. Just follow the link |
