I am above the clouds on Mt. Washington. I
have taken off my backpack and
because it is always windy here, put on my fleece pullover to keep me warm until
my trek down. I hiked up here with a group from the AMC store in Nashua.

This was taken in
1993 and is "another" hike up to Tuckerman's Ravine
to watch everyone ski. Sometimes you never hit snow until you hit the bowl.

Looks like I am thinking "boy its going
to be another bad hair day"
Looks like a little snow on the ground and I am out for an overnighter.
It is not fun hiking in the snow, but I am sure it started out as a nice day.

One thing
I can say about the Appalachian Mountain Club is that they have
a lot of volunteers that help maintain the trails in New Hampshire. Here
is a wooden path that was constructed over a very wet area that would be
impassable and would destroy the natural environment of a wetland if they did
not put this path down. They also put in wooden stair steps on a few very steep
ledge climbs that would be impossible to continue the trail, if it was not there.
They also take care of trees that fall over a path, and help with the drainage of
some of the paths. Hikers are very aware of their environment and most will
help clear and many follow the rule of what you hike in with (trash), you hike
out with it as well. We also know it is important to stay on the path and not
walk on very fragile vegetation.
I could go on and on with pictures and my passion, however, this will give
you an idea of how "Life is Good".
Here is a link to my hiking page where I tell some of my hiking "short stories"- honest!
