Comments
Comments: A speedy quick trip up and down for my 8th time summiting Moosilauke, but only 6 count for the grid. the winds (40 mph?) on Saturday were the strongest I've ever felt on any summit. not scary, but takes a lot of effort to stay upright. we started early and stayed in spikes the whole day. brought hillsound pro trail crampons, but not needed. snowshoes stayed in car. trail was nice and firm in the morning. soft and slushy in spots in the afternoon where the sun shines. we were #7 & 8 on the way up, passed dozens of people on our way back down.
