Day Five: The Grand Finale in Crawford Notch
Speaking of weather, the last few days have been nice, relative to the fact that it hadn’t rained during their visit. But those nice, sunny days, especially yesterday, were hot and a little too humid. Today brought a welcome change. The temperatures were cooler. It was still humid, but without the sun and warmth, it was generally more comfortable. The two were lighter in their hearts because of it having a really comfortable and easy-going final day.

Guide’s Summary
The past five days spent with Sylvia and Althea has been a truly enjoyable experience. As with any new journey in my life I learn something of value each and every time. Seeing the mountains, lakes, streams and paths from someone else’s view point makes me realize once again what a beautiful place we live in. From the heights of the Presidential to the valleys Maggie’s Run it was fantastic to share those magical places with someone who had not been there before. —Jeffrey Shutak
Nicely done, Althea and Sylvia. We hope your time with us here in New Hampshire was both memorable and enjoyable. A solid lead, Jeffrey. Great work guiding during this past week. You made some good and wise choices.
