Nice bushwhacks to 2 mountains on NH200 Highest List. We started off bushwhacking south on bare ground, headed east to pick up the northeast ridge, started post-holing here and there in deep patches of snow at 2250 ft to the summit of Black, picked on an old bootlegs trail to the ski slope just below the summit of Loon North Peak. Hit the recognized high point, dropped down the ski slope to about 1800 ft and bushwhacked back to our car. Another adventure with Mary, Rick and Lisa
