It was a late morning start at one of the state's most popular hiking destinations… Thank God it's still the off-season!

double climb up Pine
Hummingbird has been wanting to get in a sunrise hike, so shortly after the clocks changed seemed like the best time to go, since it'd be the latest rise now until autumn. Bonus that this was also a St Patrick's Day hike. Because why not? (We are Irish, after all.) And yes, of course we wore green!

the mystery of Avery Hill
Wednesday afternoon we took advantage of the beautiful weather and squeezed in another local hike. (We're so lucky to live in a place that has such a variety of hiking options nearby!) The plan was to try for Avery, and if it didn't work out, switch to one of the nearby trails at the end of Alton Mt. Rd. We weren't sure how much snow remained on that side of the mountain (there are still a few areas in the Belknaps where it's somewhat deep!) and we wanted to avoid snowshoes, so we needed a back up plan if spikes weren't enough.
