2. Mt. Monadnock
  3. 2012

10-06-2012 Climb

My 6th hike of this year would fall on Clumbus Day weekend. The mountain was busier than normal, but not overly bad. The temps were comfortable and the wind was averaging about 18mph on the summit. It was a bit cloudy today and a small series of rain showers came in just after I got back to the parking lot.
