I’ve been really feeling missing going to Vermont this year and remembered finding this very neat post via Louis Annino back on Sept 1st. Sheila & I’ve gone up the gondola to Mt Mansfield but not the Toll Road – just weren’t sure it was worth it. But Louis’ video and narrative makes me think even this nearly 69 year old could might make it 😊
Earlier this month, we decided to drive up the Mount Mansfield Toll Road in Stowe, Vermont. We walked the Long Trail from the Mansfield visitor’s center up to the summit of Vermont’s tallest peak! It’s certainly different seeing this mountain in the summer rather than in the winter. All those ski trails were covered in beautiful wildflowers and the icy winds were just a cooling summer breeze!
Louis, it was a real pleasure & super help to me if I ever get to go back to Stowe & possibly take the Toll road to the hiking path you took! And I’m esp glad the reblog looked good to you – thanks so much! 😊
So glad u like dit, da-Al! I just love Vermont and the Mt Mansfield area, and this was such a treat to see the summit could be reached this way! Maybe one day I can still do that too! 😊
You’re quite welcome, Michelle! Maybe I can reblog something of yours? 😊 I’d just need an image it’s ok for me to place top of my reblog – your mixed media style work is so diverse yet each so rich in colors and design ❤️
