Us have a relaxing weekend? Never! ...so we decided as sort of a last minute thing to hike Noonmark Mtn with Ed and Cate on Sat the 16th. (yes, I'm still trying to catch up)
Noonmark is in the High Peak but not actually one of the 4000ft peaks, another moderate hike good for the beginning of the summer. Having run the night before (to try to stay on my training schedule), my legs didn't feel as fresh as they did the Sat before when we did Phelps. I have to admit I was a little over confident after a fairly easy ascent up Phelps, and was put back in my place pretty quickly.

As you can see from the views from the summit the effort was definitely worth it! This peak had better view than any we've done so far (at least in my opinion). Even the black fly bite on the corner of my eye (that swelled up and looked like I had a black eye for days afterward) didn't take away from the day.
