New England Trip! (part 3)

 Our last campsite was in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The reason our trip was planned for this time was because friends of ours invited us to hike up Mt Washington and Mt Lafayette with them. So when we realized that it would work we planned our New England trip around being in New Hampshire already. We got to New Hampshire a day before they would so we went on an extra hike. 
 We hiked the Pemi trail along the Pemigewassett River to this basin with the river flowing through the granite. We then did a loop so we got to see Lonesome Lake, though it's not pictured here.

The next day we hiked up Mt Washington!!!!!! It ended up being a little foggy, but it cleared up as we hiked down.

 But the next day when we hiked up Mt Lafayette it was a gorgeous view.

 That evening we left our campsite and stopped for a night at my mom's cousin's house before heading home on Sunday. We had a wonderful trip!

Bonus Pictures... :)
Here are some more pictures that my friend took on Mt Washington:

The area ahead has the worst weather in america.
Many have died there from exposure, even in the summer. Turn back now if the weather is bad.

My sister, my friend, and I got matching hiking boots (they were on sale, so why not? :))
