Today's Hike: Edmands Col to Pinkham Notch - 10.0 miles
This mornings hike was tough over Madison. We climbed up and down boulder fields for about 3 miles which felt like a lifetime. At least the weather was good.
The last five miles for the day were pretty decent, and we were able to get through them in about 2.5 hours which was a nice surprise. Tonight we went into Gorham, NH and are staying at the White Birches campground. They offer a 21 mile slackpack from Pinkham Notch back to here. The thought of hiking 21 miles in the Whites is a little intimidating, but I'm up for the challenge. So tomorrow morning Grommet and I will be heading out early for a long, tough day.
