 | Comments: |
It was a fantastic day for a trip over Moosilauke. As the day started, the clouds evaporated leaving a bright and sunny sky. I traveled north to south, and encountered almost no other hikers on the approach to Moosilauke. After the summit, there were many groups ascending the mountain and the path was cleared quite nicely of any leaves, branches and blowdown. If continuing south on the AT, take note that the trail between NH 25 and NH 25C is quite wet, with about 60% under standing and/of flowing water. In several places, it is unavoidable and ankle deep. Overall, though, a great day! |
