Excellent late afternoon hike of Mt Pierce to see beautiful sunset colors both in the sky and reflecting on the Presidentials. The trail has a surprising amount of frozen ice flow some of which is almost bulletproof. Highly recommend decent microspikes if hiking Crawford Path. I crossed paths with 16 others this afternoon. just after the Mitzvah Cutoff is full on winter condtions and very important to have the 13 essentials including headlamps. Happy Thanksgiving!! |
