Good evening Rick. It was around 7 miles round trip. One of the adults isn't the best shape so we probably took an extra 2 hours

It was a boy scout merit badge hike. Here is a link to the map. We drove up the camel hump road and parked at the upper parking. We took the Monroe trail to the hut clearing then to summit. Pict at the summit
Was a little hazy. Pict was taken facing kind of east
You can see Interstate 89 going thru Waterbury

Great looking kid there Jim. You live in some beautiful country.
Ole Dad must have done well on the hike?

It is gorgeous Rick but hard to live here money wise. I had no problem with the hoke.
He did have a good time Don, was pretty tired.

That exercise brings on old age faster than anything.
