Moosilauke 6/7/2009

Today Shelby and I are hiking with Shelby's Brother Garrett. We met at our house in South Berwick, ME at about 7:00AM and took off towards Moosilauke. Along the way we met a turtle.


Garrett and I helped the turtle out of the road and we took a few pictures and went on our way.

We arrived at the trailhead on the Ravine Lodge Rd, booted up and went on our way. we took the Asquam Ridge Trail to the summit with the intent of going over South Peak and down via the Carriage and Snapper Trails.

Brother and sister Excited to see the summit cone close by.


We soon made it to the summit and it was fairly windy and we could see that the weather was turning for the worse. We asked one of the dozens of people at the top of this popular mountain to take our picture and then we dipped down out of the wind to eat our lunch.


Looks like we have Garrett's approval of the views.


We decided against heading over to South Peak as we were not sure how long we had before the rain started so we bailed out down the Gorge Brook Trail.

A few hours later we were at the car and on our way home.
