Sept 19th, B group hikes Mt. Tremont

What a spectacular late summer / early fall day.  As we woke to fog, some areas frost, and cool temps, we packed accordingly... fleece, gloves, hat, etc.  What a surprise the sun, and 68 degree day was.  It couldn't have been more perfect.  The hike was challenging, 2.8 miles up, with a 2,500' elevation gain.  But the views were amazing!  Sights of the ski area, ponds, and fall colors all as we looked out to the horizon.  I / we probably could have stayed at the summit longer, perhaps even taken a nap, but we didn't.  We enjoyed lunch, and were back to our car finishing the hike in 5 hours and 20 minutes including our lounging and lunch at the top.  A beautiful day.  The kind you want again and again.   PS- We never did see the logging road that is described in some online sites.
