Hikers Welcome Hostel in Glencliff, NH
Today was a short day. Due to the extra distance yesterday. We rolled into Glencliff in the afternoon. I did normal town stuff; check my mail, get a shower, do laundry, and got a ride to the nearest store to get some pizza and a sub for dinner.
In the mail I picked up food for the first 5 days in the Whites. Also I got my cold weather clothes; gloves, rain pants, and a warm vest. The Whites, especially Mount Washington, are know for their violent weather with everyone warning that it can snow any day of the year there. The south bounders I talked to said that it is still dropping below freezeing at night on Mount Washington. I have worried a lot that these additional items wouldn't be enough but my mind had been put at rest when I checked the seasonal avarages and records. The lowest it has ever been in August on Mount Washington in the Whites is 24 degrees and I feel very comfortable handeling that. On average it is 42 which is posativly balmy.
I am going to bed very late (2AM) as I have been doing a lot of packing and prep for tomrrow. Until I found that weather information I was aso busy worrying about the cold.
