Cumulas completes the NH48

August 31, 2008

Today we joined Cumulas, his two sons, his brother and numerous others from Rocks on Top as he completed his quest to climb the NH48. Hikers arrived at the summit from various trails to celebrate with him.

It was a very comfortable day at the start with a brisk wind keeping the bugs away and us cool. As we approched the junction with the Glenncliff trail we were greeted by clouds and high winds. A quick trip to South Peak had us putting our jackets on before heading to our destination.

Although some were worried about being knocked around by the wind, all made it to the summit unharmed. After many photos, we hunkered down just under the summit for a long lunch. finally the wind died and clouds disapated allowing folks decended back to their cars under bright blue skies.

Congrats! It was great to part of such a large group of fellow Rotter!!!

Length of Hike: 6 hours
