 | Comments: |
Great day to be on Hedgehog - a new favorite mountain of mine! Spectacular views of the Sandwich Range, Paugus, and Chocorua in the distance. Cool slabs on the summit, beautiful forests on the slopes and in the valley. No complaints! Did hear what sounded like a group of coyotes (or dogs?) in the valley to the east of East Ledges (possibly on Oliverian Brook). Keep your eyes out and stay safe! |
