To call what I've just been through beautiful would be a disservice. It has been about the best week of my entire life. I've been putting in major miles every day, hiking at night most nights, and eating a TON of food! I'm loving the scenery. My favorite parts are usually above treeline. It's kind of magical when you pass through the last wisps of trees into a gentle breeze and great visibility. Above treeline isn't without its perils though. Up there, weather is at best unpredictable. I've had to outrun thunderstorms and hunker down when crazy wind picks up. In some ways it reminds me of the beach with its sun and wind. I just love it... Alright, enough of that. I have a huge slack pack tomorrow (Doing the Wildcats into Gorham, NH). Here are some pictures for your enjoyment!
