The first mountain I would revisit would be Mt. Waumbek. This time Melissa would come with me. Mt. Waumbek is 4,006 ft high and the hike up was 6.6 miles with a total elevation gain of 2,756 ft. It was hike on Aug. 23, 2012 on a sunny, humid, and hazy day. Temps were around 80 at the base and there was almost no breeze. Once up into the conifers on the mountain it seemed less hot and humid and wasn't bad hiking. The haziness made the views not at good as the last time I was here, but still not too bad.
