Wildcat - peak D (3,990) over to Wildcat - peak A(4,422) then over Carter Notch and to the Carter Notch Hut(northern most hut in NH)(located between 2 small lakes). Here is where he and Snickers came upon Marianne. She was working at the hut. She had some nice hot tasty tomato soup and a variety of other foods that she offered up to Snickers and PTD. PTD said it was the best soup. They stayed to rest and dry a bit before continuing on.
Now it was over to Carter Dome(4,832), down to Zeta Pass(3,890) back up to South Carter (4,458), Middle Carter(4,610) to North Carter(4,539) and then to the Imp Shelter where he will spend the night. This shelter will sleep 16. Tonight there were a couple of SOBO(south bounders), Snickers, Lighting, Ring Leader and Monkey staying there.
After all the rain today Ponytail did get to see a nice sunset.
Ponytail says he loved the Whites. They battered and bruised him but he wouldn't have missed it for the world. Says he got a wide spectrum of weather, humidity, warmth, sun, rain, t-storms and winds. Lots of the time it was slippery and wet.
13.1 miles to day
PTD joking around...do you really think he took the Gondola? Guess you don't know PTD if you think he did.
