Went up to the White Mountains again to hike around this Memorial Day weekend. We kept pretty loose plans as far as what we were going to do and just sort of winged it. The bugs, nesting birds, and not so legal campsites, had our plans changing regularly but thats how it goes sometimes.
Overall it was a great memorable weekend, good food, good trails, and good times. I also coincidentally ran into Erica (aka Spitfire) whom I had hiked with for about the first 500 miles or so of the Appalachian Trail in 2017. Crazy coincidence that we both happened to be out in the middle of nowhere at the exact same time... again.
