Alden, Elise, and Reilly
Sunday, October 10, 2004. Columbus Day Weekend. To celebrate Alden's 5th birthday we all went up to New Hampshire for the weekend. Alden and Reilly made the treck up this peak with me and their mom. Somehow Heidi made the last hundred yards or so up with Aldie on her back. Trails are so steep in New England! I guess switchbacks were invented after these trails were made. The trail we climbed is actually a cross-country ski trail, practically straight up. It goes to two peaks, or humps. We made it to the first one; this is the view from the top. Gorgeous fall day.
