| Comments: |
Another lucky two days in the Whites...the weather and conditioning were on our side.
Hiking north to south is much more challenging and somewhat shorter. There is about 1.5 miles..estimating a 70 degree climb over
large rocks. Tripoli is considered easy to moderate. Mount Osceola Trail strenuous/difficult. The chimney between the two mountains
was easy compared to Mount Osceola Trail. |
