Saturday February 23rd, started from Pinkham at 7:30 AM, hit Lion's Head and Mount Washington by 11:30. Enjoyed super bright sun and summit view cam with many others. No wind. Zero. Nada.
Came down to Lake of the Clouds for lunch. Started on Camel Trail to hit Boot Spur. Cnditions changed and cairns were hard to track in whiteout. Found Boot Spur and went down stopping for pictures and self-arrest practice. Encountred difficulties locating the trail as it gos below treeline and decided to bushwack down to the hermit lake ski slope. Made it safely down at 6:20 PM. Long day.
