This past Saturday Rotarians Mark Sandillo, Tina DeNapoles and Gary Brelsford with two guests completed a hike up the Ammonoosuc Trail and returned on the Jewell Trail.  The hike up took 4 hrs for a 4 mile trip.  That's 1 mile per hour.  You had to be there to appreciate it.  The weather was outstanding with absolutely no clouds, 42 degrees F at the top and 5 mph winds.  Below you will see pictures of some of the trip highlights.  The experience is listed in 1000 things to do before you die.  We lived to tell about it.  The consensus was to return next year so get ready. 

A Great meal on Friday night before the hike.
