These two mountains are on the New Hampshire 3000-Footer & 200 Highest List. We started off this adventure heading southeast down a gated woods road #232 soon cross and open meadow, woods road, another meadow and then path faded out about 2200’ to area that was clear cut many moons ago with new growth and lots of past moose activity.
From here we headed north on herd paths towards the northern ridge of Black Crescent - North Peak, crossed an ATV trail / road and headed south on an old logging roads following the ridge with some of the BEST views looking west to Mt Waunbek, Mt Weeks, Mt Terrace, Mt Cabot, north to Nash Stream Forest Mountains and east towards Jericho and Sugar Mountains. WOW! We hit the recognized high point and set off heading southeast to Black Crescent finding some moose bones along the way threw open woods to the recognized high point of Black Crescent.
Another great adventure with Mary, Rick and Lisa
