| Kari and I ran the paved rec trail in Stowe Vt.....our original plan was to summit Mt Mansfield but rain mid morning spoiled our plans....we decided to hike it early Monday morning.....legs felt tired from Katahdin but they were coming around at the end... |

| Epic hike up to Maine's highpoint on remote Mt Katahdin in Baxter State park...our toughest hike ever....11 mile hike with 3800' of elevation gain....we started early and decided to forgo the infamous "knifes edge" route in favor of the easier Saddle trail that was still a significant challenge...lots of "all fours" boulder scrambling up the slide to the long ridge that is Katahdin....we got to the top in 4:05 and took in a view that was incredible at the top of Maine..at the summit we met some thru hikers that were just completing the entire AT....the entire trail was exremely rocky and required constant rock hopping and concentration...I made it without tweaking my ankle...again we kept a good pace and were one of the first to summit and return back down that day....a long and satisfying hike...
13.26% average grade on the way up... |
