 | Comments: |
Pine Bend can be done in micros all the way. It is well packed by feet and curvaceous butts. Put on snowshoes to whack over to Scaur Peak and left them on until I reached N. Tri.
Beautiful evening to summit. One viewpoint was to watch the sunset then went to the opposite viewpoint to watch the moonrise. Over on Middle Tri the moon was casting shadows and the lights of Pleasent, Gunstock, Pat's Peak and Crotched could be spotted in the distance.
Then came Sabbaday Brook Trail. No track in over a week leaving the ridge. I broke this one out and skipped The Fool Killer this time. Such a beautiful sheltered forest- even in the night.
Earlier this week some sad sap walked in 3 miles from the trailhead for nothing in peticular. Sorry, no geothermal hot spring back there. So last few miles is left many portholes. I hope the touron learned a lesson.
Last full moon hike of the winter season, spectacular! |
