The Sugarloafs - November 28th, 2008A great little hike to follow up a fine Thanksgiving dinner at the Highland Center the previous evening.
The Sugarloafs deliver a lot for not too much effort but on this day we traded views for a warm up winter experience. Of course, by the time we returned to the car the blizzard conditions had been replaced by sunshine and clear skies. No matter, a fun hike and blew a few cobwebs away.http://hikerbob.smugmug.com/Hiking-Trips/Hikes-2008/The-Sugarloafs-November-28th/DSC8837/426658449_Q75uG-Ti.jpghttp://hikerbob.smugmug.com/gallery/6683133_gThmG/2008-11-29T01:13:05ZCopyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
