Tom, Field, and Willey. February 15, 2016


This is my personal record keeping post documenting our recent (cold!) hike of Tom, Field, and Willey.

Alex has the full trip report, along with photos she took of this trek, on her blog -- Alex in the White Mountains.


Alex took photos using her nose during the beginning of this trek;
it was -13 degrees and she didn't want to take her hands from her gloves.  












We all decided to take a photo of Sage.  :)

We made quick time until we got to the ladders, then our pace came to a near-halt.  The ladders were tricky to descend, since they were covered with ice and snow.  Our total time for this hike was about 6 1/2 hours.

See you on the trails!
