Whacker lore includes tales of John Person, who a decade or so ago, reputedly climbed the 200 Highest in NH, ME and VT. Onestep and I never climbed with John, but we have hiked with others who did. Generally we consider these other hikers to be of sound mind, but, seriously, who would be crazy enough to attempt such a list of remote/viewless/trailless little nubbles??
After a trip, Sunday, NW of Rangely, we are happy to report that we discovered summit registers on Unnamed Cupsuptic Pond (SE Pk) and NW Cupsuptic Snow with John's entries from May 1998 and August 1997. On the summits of N Cupsuptic Snow and Cupsuptic Mt, we found danggling string but no attached jars. John was there!
What a terrific day in the woods! Surprising VFTT on several summits, crisp dry conditions, NO biting insects!! Lots of wildlife - moose, deer, red fox, raccoons, Gray jays and Boreal chickadees.
John, we salute you!
