2. New England 4000+ ft Mountains

Carter Dome, South Carter, Middle Carter 11.18.2012

For today's hike, I joined up with a small group of other hikers from an online forum. We would hike Carter Dome (4,832 ft), South Carter Mtn (4, 430 ft), and Middle Carter Mtn (4,610 ft) using a slightly different route than I did 5 months ago when here. The hike was approximately 11.9 miles with 4,665 ft of elevation gain. It was on 11-18-12 where the weather was clear skies, minimal wind, and temps climbing to around freezing.
