January 30/31st 2021 Annual Winter Bonds Overnight w/ BK Down Zealand Road, up Hale Brook, broke out Lend-a-Hand, and Twinway from Zeacliff on. Hovering around 0 made this one sketchy for sure. Most of my overnights are usually in the teens. Sounds silly but the difference is stark. We thought we might have to set up tents to spare toes but pushed through. Got a bleb on my big toe. Very superficial. Had to breakout the trail to Guyot. Great night in the shelter. Always fun to be out with BK. 1/31 was a BLUEBIRD day. We awoke to a pristine balmy 8°s sunrise. We took longer in the bond summits than I ever have. Probably an hour on Bondcliff before the long slog to my truck at Lincoln woods. 24ish miles all around. Next year’s hike is hopefully a three day December Pemi trip! Lands me at 43.22% my goal for the tear is 50% so just 39 more peaks! 😬🤘🏼 ❄️#hike #hikethe48 #hikethewhites #hikersofinstagram #hikethenortheast #hikingblogs #hikenh #wmnf #wmnfhikers #thebonds #winterhiking #wintercamping #winterhiking❄️ #hikethe4000footers #nh48 #484k #ne67 #nehh #gridding #greatoutdoors #getoutside #optoutside #optoutdoors⛄️☀️ @noonanbk always a pleasure bud!
