After the recent smoke and storms, it's been weeks since I've had clear views from a mountain. Today, I lucked out and was treated to perfect weather on Puzzle Mountain! I was the first one of the day on the mountain and hiked the Woodsum Spur counterclockwise. There are so many great viewpoints on the mountain that face in a variety of directions. The mountain was relatively busy and I talked to a number of out of staters who were greatly enjoying their time in western Maine. I don't have all that much to write about today, it was just a perfect day to be in the mountains! |
