Ice coated trees = a crust..... somewhere. |
There is a distinct disadvantage to starting off the weekend by attending Crotched Mountain's Midnight Madness. It totally messes with your internal clock so that you're not exactly jumping out of bed for an alpine start on Saturday. Or Sunday for that matter.
So when 11:00 am rolls around and you're still organizing your gear for the trip out to the closest mountain, you know you're behind the eight ball for your solo tour.
