Bald Mountain, Oquossoc

                       

Mid afternoon on this Friday, I trekked up to the town of Oquossoc and headed to Bald Mountain. No one was on the trail or, pretty much, on the roads in this tourist town. Bald is fairly benign for the first 80% and then ice, snow, and mud took over on the steeps. I probably should have brought microspikes with me, but then again, the trail was pretty firm. I remember hiking this mountain several times with Bailey. When I got to the tower at the top, I tied Bailey to the metal beams at the bottom. No way he would have climbed the stairs to the top. It's high! 











That's Mt. Washington in the distance
