Had a great hike today. No sun, but seasonally warm temps, no bugs, snow or ice, either!

It's not a great view hike, but there are certainly some nice local views, south to Mount Roberts, and the summit cone of Mount Chocorua is prominent to the southwest.

Further along the trail there are glimpses north to the Willey Range, and Northeast the Moats and Kearsarge North, as well as east to Pleasant Mountain and the Burnt Meadow Range.

The dogs had a blast running along the ledges and splashing in the streams. Tibbot (Tee-Bow) and Max took turns pestering each other, I think it wound up even.

Wicket stuck close to me as usual and let the boys have it if they got too near. My Guardian Angel...
