Comments
Comments: Did a leisurely hike up one of my favorite semi-local favorites- Pack Monadnock. The auto road and Wapack Trail were well packed and tracked, with some minor drifting on the Wapack. Excellent views from and near the top, and Mt. Washington could be seen 102 miles to the north-northeast.
