That's a fine trail system.<br /><br /> I'll stop by the Gilford library sometime and pick up the Bosworth map. I have it on my computer, but there's nothing like having one on the trail.<br /><br />That was my first time on North Straightback Link, and I enjoyed it. Will add it to our guidebook descriptions.<br /><br />SteveSteve Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16403760631302934834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814464431995035927.post-70844687416801745082013-11-18T08:53:09.988-05:002013-11-18T08:53:09.988-05:00Nice trekking in my neck of the woods!

There are several maps to choose from. I think I paid $3 for mine last spring when Cameron and I did the Belknap 12. <br /><br />North Straightback Link is nice, we took that on one of our loop trips last spring. Less used, but nice views looking back when the leaves are down or not yet out. <br /><br />Fantastic sunset photos, you were at the right place, right time!Summersethttp://www.nh48.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814464431995035927.post-47008018281676151982013-11-17T22:23:28.535-05:002013-11-17T22:23:28.535-05:00Thanks, John - the Belknaps are really an outstand...Thanks, John - the Belknaps are really an outstanding place to hike, especially in the shoulder seasons. Wish they were closer! Hadn't been to Mt. Major in a few years - sure is a marvelous spot, though apt to be swarming with hikers in summer.<br /><br />The sunset was an unexpected treat - just worked out that way.<br /><br />SteveSteve Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16403760631302934834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814464431995035927.post-61017688700065822592013-11-17T21:34:29.400-05:002013-11-17T21:34:29.400-05:00Steve . . . congratulations on completing the &quo...Steve . . . congratulations on completing the "Belknap 12"!<br /><br />Your report was very interesting to me, especially since I've visited none of the destinations that are described and photographed.<br /><br />Those sunset photos are truly outstanding!<br /><br />John<br />1HappyHikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02242409292439585691noreply@blogger.com
