 | Comments: |
Just a fantastic two days to grab five more peaks on the way to the finish. Staying at Carter Notch Hut as the only two guests was quite a different (and nice) hut experience. Another amazing hut hike in the Whites. We just love the AMC huts!
This is definitely a tough hike and more difficult than the mileage and elevation indicate. It was worth every step though! |
