A lot has changed since I hike up Tecumseh in '99 at the age of 29 to bag my first NH 4K in winter. Licia and I moved back to VT, bought a 232 year old farmhouse, had three kids, and I completely changed careers for starters!
After checking the current conditions on my smartphone (was there such a thing in 1999?!), and finding out the wind was already blowing 50 on the rockpile; oh well, I thought, we'll just have a great walk in the woods.
Maybe we'll see Star the Moose.
Its not to windy at the hut: the crew!
Let's hit Madison!
Looking at Washington across the Great Gulf.
Headed back down to the hut.
Let's go for Adams!
After this, it got too windy to take pics! Playing with Google Earth is fun! (couldn't do that in '99, either!)
Thanks to Marty, LarryD, Mike Gaffney and WSC for coming along on the last leg of this journey, and big thanks to all the folks with whom I've hiked, or met along the way. It's been a great 13 years!
