Event: NEOC: Mt. Wachusett
 

Beautiful day in the forest. Botched several controls
#2 left Admin Road too far south and wandered a bit before I figured it out
#5 thought I would find the stream and follow it north to the control, but never saw it and overran it. Saw West Rd, climbed back up and found #6 first
#10 left #9 in the wrong direction and found Echo Lake then followed the very muddy trail over the hill to ten

Green - Splits

Bald Rock Mountain trail in Lincolnville, ME. Clear, cool morning with excellent views of Penobscot Bay.

Burnt Mountain near Sugarloaf in Maine. Steep, rocky, wet, snowy hike to just above the treeline. Unable to continue the 300 feet to the summit because of strong winds and ice. Fabulous views of Sugarloaf Mountain and the Bigelow Range.

Short walk with Jesse and Arden in Esther Currier Wildlife Management Area in Elkins, NH to stretch our legs partway through the long, rainy drive from Brattleboro, VT to Eustis, ME.

Wantastiquet Mountain in West Chesterfield, NH with Jesse and Arden. Trails were running streams in places. Steep climb to a nice view of Brattleboro, VT.
