Looking west from the summit, toward Vermont. Not that many people were on the mountain on a Thursday in late August, and most were in their twenties. My old high school friend and classmate Tom B and I took our sweet time going up and down (a prerogative, perhaps, of age/semi-retirement), and had some nice conversations with folks of all ages along the way. He remarked that climbing the mountain seemed to “bring out all our better angels”, which has always been my experience.
