This was an official AMC hike for young members (NH Chapter). The weather was ideal for the most part & considering how many of the weekends have been stormed out I glad.
Start time was 0700 & temperature was 58 degrees (F). As the day went on it became more hot & humid as it is still summer. Starting out no bugs, towards the end of the day on Dicey Mills they were out but not real bad a few here and there. The route taken was up Blueberry Ledge to whiteface, over the ridge, tag passaconaway (up & back vs loop), then down dicey mills. There were some wet spots in the areas of lower elevation on the section of trail between whiteface & passaconaway, but all in all nothing too noteworthy. |
