Flags on the 48 - 2010

[NeoAkela]

Clay, that is a gorgeous photo - I love the composition and color! Wish I could have been there to see that!

Couldn't make it out for FOT48 but caught sight of the flag on top of the Old Man site when I was out for a quick sunset bushwhack on the other side of the notch. I wondered if the person who was up there after dark with the flashlight saw me signaling back with a headlamp from the ledges across the way?

It is a wonderful shot: color, motion, emotion...

We are looking for comfirmation of Flags making it to the summits of:

Moosilauke
South Kinsman
South Hancock
East Osceola


I would like to take the time to thank everyone who participated this year. You volunteers make this event truly special.

I'd also like to thank everyone who sent messages to my wife and I as we deal with the death of our daughter. We have a long road ahead but I'm thankful to have a great bunch of friends to help pick us up.

We clearly saw the flag on S. Hancock from atop Carrigain.

There was a flag on Moosilauke. We could see it from Canon (with binoculars).

Whew! I'm glad Canon had one, I was 'sent' by Brian to cover Canon, since there was some confusion with Silent Cal stepping aside, but I did not get the message till Monday!

Glad to know that worked out!
