Hiking the Presidential Mountains in New Hampshire

August 14, 2005. Although the weather didn't look too promising we decided to hike anyway. It was a bit of a wet day but we had a great time anyway! We knocked off 3 >4000' ers today without many views but it was a decent 11 mile hike..


The first peak of the day, Mt. Jackson


We ran into two VERY friendly birds


He seemed to like my breakfast bar!

Lots of mushrooms on this trail
