10/19/76 Day 27- Dry River lean-to #3, Emergency Shelter in Edmonds Col (don't know if its still there)

 

I was still asleep at 7:00 when John woke me saying that the weather looked good. We quickly ate, packed up and headed out. The other three guy were still sound asleep. Our goal was to get over Mount Washington but first we had to regain the ridge and at 10:00 after a long hard climb we were back above tree line with the summit of Mount Washington in view. Hiking over the rocks was difficult and it wasn't until 1:00 that we made it. It was a beautiful clear day with no wind. We heard that the day before when we were just 6 miles away a 95 mph gust was record at the summit! The Summit House is closed for the season but the snack bar was open which we certainly made use of. Also the road is closed but the "stage" bus is operating. We were the only people there. We hung out for an hour or so before moving on. We decided we didn't have enough time to get to the next camp on the ridge so we dropped back down to the first lean-to which was 3 1/2 miles. The first mile of trail was difficult with lots of ice but than it became a nice valley hike in the pine forest. But still it was 5:00 before we arrived. The lean-to was pretty nice with some snow. John built a fire to dry out his socks. I ate and went to bed feeling good after just having one of my best days yet.

Lean-to shelter overlooking the Covered Bridge

Very pretty, but we did not stay.

we slept outside in these lean-tos and it was freezing cold! none of us had a decent sleep. the temp was probly around -10 or -15. each of us had 2 sleeping bags but was still freezing.

waking up to frozen pants and boots are also no very nice.

Lean to the left, lean to the right...

This is one to make you imagine it during its prime - many years ago. Can you get there ?

On the Early May Bank Holiday Monday had a return visit to Winterbourne House & Garden after around 3 years.

 

A nice and warm couple of hours around the gardens.

The Lean-to Glasshouse

 

Strange stuff - like thin polystyrene sheets - with bird seeds!

Remaining gaps & cracks filled with 2 part filler and sanded back level with existing frame

We spent a lot of time here. Our reservations didn't have all of us in the bunkhouse so we took turns sleeping in the lean-to which quickly became a favorite hang-out spot as well (Big Rick, Morgan, Markus).
