Mt Isolation, September 9, 2019 - a 48-4K Triple Play

On a great weather September day, six of the A group hiked in to Mt Isolation from rte 16 low on Pinkham Notch. The 14-mile hike had been bumped from an earlier scheduled date, as doing a hike like that in very warm, humid weather would have been asking for trouble. This hike marked the end of Jim's first round of the NH 48 4-thousand footers, Dick's fifth round, and John's "Over 75" round (not any official "goal," but something John figured he might as well finish). Pictured below are Doug (here ya go, little fella), John, Jim, Larry, and Pam (pic by Dick). But for a lingering cloud, Mt Washington would appear between John and Jim. Then, with everyone ready, is the same shot, sans bird. Mt Monroe appears between Doug and John.
