I missed another day and I didn't even realize it. Looks like another 365 project in my future!
I have been hiking a lot lately. I don't like to make excuses, and really it is not a good one, but I think I take on too many projects. On 10/10 I hiked Cannon Mountain. This was another solo hike and 4000-footer #11. The hike was short, but very steep. It was Columbus Day weekend, so it was busy in Franconia Notch. I got there early enough that I found a parking space, but when I came down off the mountain the place was a zoo!
This was one of my views on the way up the mountain. I have no idea what these berries are, but they were just hanging out with the mountains behind them.
A ladder going up one of the rock faces. Yes, it was this crooked, but also very stable. Coming down was scary, but I took a photo with my camera doing that.
I beat book time by almost two hours. It was extremely windy at the top, and very cold. Had I been hiking with someone I may have spent a little more time at the top, but I ate lunch and headed right back down and went to work that night. I was a little tired, but it was worth it!
