White Mountains Guide Day Twenty-Two

Another very muggy day and on top of that the guidebook was incredibly misleading in their trail descriptions which meant the hike ended up being a lot harder than it could’ve been had I done the loop in reverse. I almost cried out of frustration, exhaustion, and just being so tired of climbing uphill all of the time, but I didn’t. Tears don’t make the elevation less nor do they make the hike any easier, they just make you more dehydrated. So I pressed on.
