Took an afternoon hike in Pillsbury State Park in May 2022 in search of the campground and to see if I can hike on the MSGW. I was getting anxious about my hike and I could not wait to learn more about it. This "looked" like a quick hike and I could accomplish it in a few hours. Did I get to Lucas Lookout? Watch and find out. Recorded on 5/7/22.

Monadnock-Sunapee Greenway: Section 4 / Day 2 of Thru-hike

I hiked the Monadnock-Sunapee Greenway this past summer. I did the first 4 days as a section hiker so I did a "there and back" for 20 miles. After 2 weekends, of that, I decided to do the last 32 miles as a thru-hike.

This is my day 7 adventure of 8-plus miles from Steve Galpin Shelter at Moose Lookout in Goshen, NH to the Peak of Mt. Sunapee and back to my SUV. This was my first solo backpacking hike. It was 3 days and 2 nights alone. I survived, barely. Filmed on July 4, 2022.

I included a gear list for my hike. If I missed something let me know in the comments and I'll add it: to your reply and update this description. None of these are affiliate links, it is where I bought it.
