Day 125

Beautiful day in the Chocorua region again. Hiked up Liberty Trail for the first time and I highly recommend it. Tracing doesn’t always lead you over the summit, sometimes you stop a few hundred feet short and I’m completely ok with that. Today was one of those days. I’ve hiked several new trails in the last two hikes and I’m really excited to see even more new trails in the upcoming weeks. A lot of what I hiked in winter were things I’ve done before so I’m thrilled to be finally checking out some new areas. Also, I almost swallowed my first black fly today but was able to spit it out at the last minute.
