Comments: ...a decent week considering the disruption caused but the first (and easiest) leg of my move. Next week will not be as good. My Monday run up and down Williams Canyon was absolutely spectacular and my final ride (for a long time?) in the Mad River Valley was very nice as well.

This week's picture is a stylized image of a purple trillium taken on Monadnock Mountain in Vermont (not to be confused with the more well-known Monadnock Mountain in Southern New Hampshire).

  1. I've always wanted to run up Monadnock. That's across the river from Colebrook, NH right? We were doing a lot of work in that area last year for US Fish & Wildlife.

    Solid week.

  2. Kevin, Yes, Monadnock (VT) is just across from Colebrook. Unfortunately, I did not get to run up (I was there for a class) but I did hike to the top. The trail is nice (rocky) and the view from the fire tower is spectacular (I will include one next time I post). Also, Near the top was the highest density of moose droppings that I have ever seen.
