A good day to acclimate myself to colder climes, while hitting another Hundred Highest peak, and doing some shameless redlining. I think all but ~0.5 miles was new trail to me. A lot of damage from Sandy, but nothing terribly crazy. Some erosion here, a few stepover/duck under blowdowns to contend with there. A couple uprooted trees caused damage to Hi-Cannon just as you come on to the trail from Lonesome Lake Trail, and on Lonesome Lake Trail, just before Around Lonesome Lake. A bit of rain and a bit of snow highlighted the cloudy conditions I encountered, but temperatures were comfortable and the wind was light.

The whole story is HERE.

Cheers,

Bill
