Day 171

Weather:
Afternoon Rain

Today’s Hike:
Mizpah Hut to Edmands Col - 9.6 miles

This morning Rocket and Storm left early and I hiked out with Grommet. Our climb up to Mt. Washington was incredible; the sky was clear, the sun was shining and it was just windy enough to help keep me cool. As we approached the summit of Washington the clouds rolled in and the wind picked up. Typical Mt. Washington weather.

After dealing with some unnecessary high school drama Grommet and I separated ourselves to grab lunch from the snack bar. An egg salad sandwich has never tasted so good.

Our hike down Washington was a cold, rainy, windy one. When the rain broke we found a sweet campsite at Edmands Col, and took shelter from rainstorms that were still rolling in.
