Just now returned from a fantastic winter adventure in the White Mountains, NH. Perfect weather and trail conditions allowed me to hike a substantial loop up high -- first ascending to a summit, then hiking a section of the ridge (hiking up and over other peaks), and ending by descending from the last peak. A great day of hiking with amazing views! #FootpathFriday #snowshoeing #mountains

Thank you! It was an amazing day up on the ridge. Beautiful views not only of distant mountains, but also of nearby features such as the cairns. I took pics of a number of these cairns— all with unique patterns of rime ice.
@TimKStanton I can feel the fresh air and the light even through the screen. I vaguely knew of 'rime frost', but not how it comes about. It was interesting to see and learn.
