March 2, 2010 Hike #2
Since I hiked Moosilauke in the morning, I didn't reach the trailhead for Cannon until 2:15. After working hard breaking out the trail to Moosilauke, I was hoping someone would have been up this trail. Nope. It was up to me. Fortunately, I only had to break trail for the first mile. The glade was broken out from all the skiers. Here's a picture of my first view.

For the finally 1/3 of a mile, I headed up the ski slope.

Madison and I returned by walking down the edge of the ski slopes.
