    Nice looking trip.
    I'm envious of the airy routes you have in your neck of the woods.

    p.s. check the subscribe button at the end.. looks like it is just a text box w/no action tied to it.

    Thanks. Mt. Monadnock is known for it's views. We have lots of wooded summits with no views too.

    Also, thanks for the heads-up on the subscribe button. I just fixed it.

    Another nice stroll through the mountains. Don't know which looked better, the scenery or that ice cream at the end. Thanks for sharing the adventure.
    Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!

    Hey Tom,

    Great vid as usual. Look forward to seeing you at the Great Pumpkin Hang this Fall. Should be a blast.

    Monadnock is always a great hike. If one ever wonders why NH is called the Granite State, just watch this video and the secret is out of the bag.

    All the best Tom.

    See you soon.

    Thanks. Haven't done to0 much hiking this summer. Life has a way of getting in the way sometimes. It was great to get out.

    Looking forward to the hang in October.

    Awesome! Every time I go to Monadnock, I insist on taking Pumpelly. Sometimes it gets a bit sketchy in winter. Looks like you had a great day & the crowds were out (another reason to use Pumpelly)

    The hordes park at the State Park visitor's center and come straight up the White Dot and White Cross trails.

    I've never been up either, but have seen the stream of people heading to & from them. I always enjoy seeing what people wear. Had the summit closed down right after we got up there due to fog & people getting "lost" in it... Lots of people unprepared for any change in weather.
