Mount Monadnock
Mount Monadnock
2008
Last year Eric, John, and I attempted to climb Monadnock in the winter. We were nearly successful. We had to turn back due to the slick ice covering the rocks. This year Eric and I were properly equipped to conquer the mountain. It was a fantastic day, 20-30F, light clouds, with snow flurries on our descent. The summit was socked in fog and blowing snow. The views were great and the scenery was beautiful; compare the ice covered bent trees with those that you see in the summer and it is a distinct contrast.
