Day 127

Today was all brand new miles for me. I’ve never hiked any of the trails west of Glencliff Trail in the Moosilauke region and it was really nice to see what the AT looks like before hitting the White Mountains proper. I knew it was going to be a long day with a lot of elevation gain, but I felt good and was pleasantly surprised at how well my body handled the day. Daniel Doan and Lambert Ridge Trail were my two favorites of the day and in my opinion, hiking Smarts Mountain on J-Trail is the easiest approach.
