25 May 2008: Mt. Snow

Some nice views from a hike I will probably never do again. The Mt. Snow ski complex is just a few miles from my digs this summer and so I went over to see whether it would be a good local hike. It is a steep climb on either the ski trails or a maintenance road (I did the road most of the way). Steep is OK, but the hiking just isn't very interesting.

I did see some small patches of snow in shady, protected areas

View from the summit of Somerset Reservoir (the little body of water just beyond the right thumb of the reservoir is Grout Pond where I have already made two quick walks this summer)
