Mt Isolation - August 28, 2018

On a day that was hot and humid elsewhere, Dick and Doug did Mt Isolation, down along the Montalban Ridge to the south of Mt Washington. The Glen Boulder Trail takes you up steeply above treeline in a mile and a half. Further up, at over 5100 ft, it ties into the Davis Path, which is taken south almost three miles and down to Isolation at only 4003 ft. Up high, the wind was blowing perhaps 35-40 mph, temperature was around 70, and we couldn't see far through the fog. We had to layer up to keep warm. On the return path, the skies had cleared, giving wonderful but hazy views. Below are Doug at Glen Boulder, then a shot from up at the high junction.
