ol' man winter


Beautiful day - but what is that in the center- um - the maples are starting to turn crimson for fall. Winter will be here sooner than I wanted (had planned to finish on Sept 1st). Temps are a little cooler in the morning (making it harder to get out of your bag), but the big change is the amount of daylight. Used to be able to hike till 9:00 - 9:30pm before having to put on your headlamp. Now you pretty much need to be finding your camping spot by 7:15, as the sun drops fast after that. Need to get a move on, but the upcoming Whites and my out of shape body - well, neither say "go fast".
