Here are two videos, both of Megan, from our trip to the White Mountains this past weekend.
The first is of Megan on the very windy and cold summit of Mt. Eisenhower. We think the temperature was around 10° F or so, and with the 40mph+ winds the wind chill was around -15° F (though we also think the wind was 45-50mph+). The hike from Mt. Pierce to Mt. Eisenhower (the second video) was entirely along an exposed ridge and subject to the same wind, but it seemed measurably worse on the final approach and top of Eisenhower. Otherwise the conditions were perfect — completely clear skies, and a view well worth the effort!
While mom and dad were traipsing about above the treeline, Caleb had some quality time down below with Grandma and Grandpa. Photos and more about our trip to come…
