This was the view from 4,030 feet on Thanksgiving Day. That is right, those are clouds at eye level. The hike was up the Sunset Ridge Trail, around 3 miles in length and around 2,600 feet in elevation gain. This is looking up a the Chin summit, one of a couple on Mount Mansfield. The summits are named after the parts of a face because some drunk mountaineer thought it looked like a profile.
The clouds would come in and then departs with strong gusts of wind. It was like being inside a pillow, white all around and this eerie silence.
Heather, bundled against the cold, taking a picture of me. I will post those shots later once I have loaded the camera into this computer.
This is looking towards Camel's Hump. Just surreal. These were all shot with my dinky iPhone camera. It was a beautiful hike and a great Thanksgiving.
