Seek The Peak Is Coming
2015-06-16 17:14:19.000 – Michael Kyle, Weather Observer/IT Specialist
As Seek the Peak is quickly approaching it is getting to be the time to start preparing for all the hiking that will be going on that day. Mike Carmon our shift leader and member of “The Watchers on the Wall” has taken it upon himself to start making sure that his teammates are prepared for the hiking that is ahead of us. You can see in our new Seek the Peak video that Mike gets everyone on his shift up and moving around. While some of it was just for fun, it did help get the blood pumping again.
Now that Mike has gotten us out of winter hibernation mode and back into a fit mindset, we are getting more excited for July 18th. Now we just need to figure out the trail we are going to hike. We are thinking about heading up from the west side of the mountain, maybe doing the Ammonoousuc Ravine trail. If you have a suggestion on which trail we should hike leave us a comment, we’d love to hear your suggestions! Don’t forget, Seek the Peak is coming!
