Kearsarge Tr

Hiked Kearsarge north in Bartlett NH. The summit is 3250'. Total ascent was about 2500' Great views of cathedral ledge and North Conway. It was getting a bit hazy however. I passed one group of people on my way up. There was a nice fire tower on the top. I didn't really keep track of my time. The descent was agonizing because my feet were sore from climbing two mountains in one day. My total ascent for the day was about 7000' yikes!
