I needed to refocus myself... The NH 4K's are getting stale and my LT trip is looming. So, suddenly I remember there is a perfectly challenging peak in my back yard. I went up the White Arrow trail after doing the road walk on the Toll Road. The trail is a bit post holed but in a unique way that you can use the post holes to step up the trail. It's in decent shape. The Ice flow has a heard path to bypass it. Going above tree line, all the trails are blown in and that makes the steeps fun. Plus I had 30/40 mph gusts to play in. Made for a great Spring day. Home before I knew it. |
