Lonesome Lake, White Mountains

My first hike in New Hampshire's White Mountains (despite living less than 2 hours away my entire life -- better late than never!).  We hiked to Lonesome Lake, about 1800 feet.  It wasn't easy but it was fun and the trail ended at a beautiful, frozen lake, nestled between pine trees.  I really enjoyed myself and will certainly look for opportunities to do it more often.

“Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn.” - John Muir
