The final climb up Katahdin was an experience I'll never forget. Adios and I left at sunrise to start the 5.5 mile walk up Katahdin to Baxter Peak. The forecast said full sun and warm but we were quickly greeted with dense fog, strong winds and cold temps. A few times we questioned if we should keep walking but had come too far to turn back now.
Arriving at the peak we realized that we the first two up and had the mountain to ourselves for a bit, precious time I will never forget.
Thanks for coming along for the ride,
