Spur of the moment posting. Weather for Labor day calls for it. Reach out if you have any questions.

This is a pretty challenging hike with close to a 3,000 foot gain. The effort is worth the view.

Trip Report/Photos

After a great hike with the GO group on Saturday, I got inspired to do more and conquer Vermont's highest peak: Mount Mansfield.

The weather was beautiful, albeit on the warm side. It was not too crowded on this Labor Day but there were plenty of Quebeckers hiking the trails.

There was not much time to stay at the top as the black flies were on the attack.

As a whole, a wonderful hike. I clocked it at 3 hours and 20 minutes.
