Sat, Jul 5 2008 - Moose Mountain Lookout (View Original Event Details)
|
The trail was in great condition and the weather was sunny, with slight overcast peiods and a little wind, perfect conditions for a hike up to Moose Mountain Fire Lookout. Our group comprised 15 energetic and highly determined hikers. I didn’t hear any complaints even as we struggled up the final leg to the Lookout station.
When we arrived at the Lookout, we were greeted by Dave who lives at the Fire Lookout. Dave is a pretty friendly guy who has been there since May and expects to stay until October. His wife and daughter are in to keep him company for this month. A few of us signed the guest book and posed for pictures to prove that we’d actually made it to the top. We rested on the heli pad and ate our lunches. Afterwards, we shared some dark chocolate to celebrate our victory before heading back to reality.
It was such a great day and Thank You to all who participated for making it so! /Len M.
