We geared up with plenty of water and and the equipment for the pole for "Flags on the 48" and headed out from the parking lot about 7:10 am. Lowes Path is typical of most North slope paths in the Presidential Range: easy grades in the first two miles, then moderate grades with slippery rock that requires care (particularly on decent), then varying grades with sharp talus for the last third above the treeline. It was a crystal clear day for the most part with spectacular views once we reached Grey Knob. full report at: http://forums.flagsonthe48.org/viewtopic.php?p=15755#15755
