Comments
Comments: I finally made it over to Chocorua. It's funny that after 7 years of hiking in the whites that I had never climbed this peak before. This also doubled as a nice high efficiency redlining day which turns any regular out and back into a nice series of shapes like today's bowtie shaped loop. Great views and some nice gusty morning winds on the peak. Congrats to the couple we watched propose on the summit. Sorry for the cringe worthy the relationship is all downhill from here joke. If u run into Michael Pillsbury congratulate him on his grid finish today 8/1 on Moosilauke! Finished my first month back in the whites post injury with 70 miles and 5 peaks!
