Carrigan

My friend Amanda and I decided to hike Mt. Carrigan together. It was a picture perfect day, with no clouds and temperatures in the 70s. This hike was especially interesting for Amanda because she had done the very same hike 4 months earlier during our school’s “outback”. Throughout the trip she would point out the places where her group had set up campsite or gathered water. It was nice going up with someone who had done the climb before because they knew the easy and tough spots. The hike was a very constant climb, never too easy or too steep. We made great time and were at the summit in a little over 2 hours. On the top of the mountain was a storm tower that we climbed. From there the views of all New Hampshire were incredible. Since the weather was great we stayed atop the mountain for a quick lunch. All in all this was a great hike on a beautiful day.
