One of the farthest away White Mountains 4000 feet. 14.6mi, 3600 elevation change via the Rocky Branch Trail, Isolation Trail, and Davis Path. Some people do it as a long day-hike. We did it as a short backpack. The things I liked the most about this hike:
- Weather was great, the views at the top where even greater. There was a lot of wind at the top, as expected, but otherwise a clear day. No rain, snow or hail (like other times — we guess it is because Lina was not with us).
- Our first 4k this year. We haven’t been hiking too much.
- Adriana’s feet has healed — at least enough to hike one of these.
- We found an official campsite that was not documented in our maps. And was conveniently located at the time we got tired, with an unexpected water source.
