Did this one with Monica and the Random Group of Hikers. This one was #100 for me and #99 for Monica. This couldn’t have been any easier - had planned the route to go wide to the west and hit the Nubble from the northwest. There were footprints in the snow and followed pretty much the route we had planned so we followed them ... all the way to the top. The route was fairly obvious and open even without the footprints - there was one “blowdown†about 2/3 of way to the Nubble that hides the herd path so we diverted right and then came back to the left. Nice views of the Peak Above the Nubble from the Nubble itself and from the lookout just below the PATN summit. The canister needs a new notebook. |
