Hike up, Hobble down

  • Place: Mt Washington
  • Trailhead: Pinkham Notch
  • Miles: 6-ish
  • Trail Conditions: Rocks, rocks, and rocks, very worn trail
  • Technical Level: Pretty tough hike given the lack of switchbacks
  • GPS Track:


Notes: Teri lead this hike up to the Hermit Lake Shelter, near the base of Tuckerman Ravine.  Sore legs and all we made it up in good time. Great views of Tuckerman and other ravines. Coming down was another story...Teri had to keep the knee straight while descending the whole way.  Watching the youngin's sprint down the rocky trail made us both think of days gone by...

Tidbits: Can't imagine hiking up here in the winter to ski Tuckerman's...just crazy.



Happy Trails,
OMMB
