Summit From the Sky

Mount Washington from over Maine
Well, five days later and we are back on the summit. Our shortened off-week was due to a delayed shift change last week that got us off the summit a day later than usual. Despite this, I was able to fully enjoy my time in the valley with the added bonus of a beautiful flight to Maine on Monday. With minimal clouds, I was able to snap a few pictures of my other home, Mount Washington. Although it is spring in the valley’s, the peaks are still showing obvious signs that they are not through with winter quite yet. Personally, I could go for another week or two of winter but we will see how things play out in the weeks ahead.
