Tuesday Turtles hike Mt Katherine

Tuesday the Turtles headed out to Wonalancet to hike Mt Katherine. After a wonderful send off by Sue Speers in the library parking lot, we all climbed into Jane's car. We met up with Betsy at the trailhead and started up the trail, singing as we hiked! There is a wonderful open, spring fed well at the  half way point and we were rewarded at the summit with a sweeping view of Chocorua in the distance. We celebrated with another Sue Speers tradition of cheetos at the top. We took a different trail down -which turned out to be a bit swampy- but we had fun identifying all the flora and fauna along the way. (Yes, we made up names to those we didn't know!) After, it was off to Tamworth and The Other Store for well deserved ice cream on their back porch.
